MPP/Graduate Certificate in Data Science

Three rows of students at large classroom tables

The Trachtenberg School works in conjunction with the Data Science Program to offer a combined Master of Public Policy (MPP) and Graduate Certificate in Data Science degree. The combined program allows students to complete the master’s degree on an accelerated timeline by double-counting nine credits toward both degrees.

To apply, current master's students must submit a dual enrollment application form through the Columbian College.
