Discover the Best Data Science Classes in Boston

The field we know today as data science slowly took shape through the second half of the 20th century and the early years of the 21st, as rapidly advancing technology created heaps of data requiring professional processing. By 2010, an article in The Economist defined the Data Scientist’s job as one that “combines the skills of software programmer, statistician and storyteller/artist to extract the nuggets of gold hidden under mountains of data.”

The Data Science Association defines data science as “the scientific study of the creation, validation and transformation of data to create meaning.” In the 2020s, a number of career tracks utilize data science, including Data Scientists, Data Analysts, Statisticians, and Data Engineers, just to name a few. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics projects data science job outlooks as considerably higher than average. By 2031, projections show Data Scientist employment growing by 36%.
