Unlike purely technical tracks, USC’s BA in Data Science pairs tidyverse R notebooks with narrative journalism skills. Students clean messy civic datasets in Jupyter, apply fairness metrics like DP and EO, and craft D3.js scrollytelling pages for the LA Times Data Desk. A civic-engagement practicum partners with non-profits to audit housing or health disparities, ensuring future analysts speak code and community alike.
