Great people, great views, and memories worth the climb. ⛰️ Thanks to everyone who joined us for the Flatirons hike on 10/10/2026. 🫶🏽 More DaSSA adventures to come soon! Don’t forget to keep an eye out for the upcoming Fall Field Day 2026 updates! See you all there. #DaSSA #cudatascience #flatironshike #foreverbuffs #cuboulder by @cuboulderdatascience
A busy week ahead for MS-DS! 🎤 Oct. 14: Hear from MS-DS alum Shanya Chaubey about her path from CU Boulder to @lifeatmicron and her work in AI. 🏈 Oct. 15: Step away from the assignments and join @dassa.cuboulder for Field Day at Sewall Field. 💻 Oct. 16: Join two industry workshops on system design and AI with engineers from Amazon and Microsoft, courtesy of @csgpdc.cuboulder Check out the slides for times, locations, and registration details. Hope to see you there! by @cuboulderdatascience
We recently gathered for our annual Open House where online students in the Master of Science in Data Science (MS-DS), Master of Science in Electrical and Computer Engineering (MS-ECE), Master of Engineering in Engineering Management (ME-EM), Master of Science in Computer Science (MS-CS), and Master of Science in Artificial Intelligence (MS-AI) programs on Coursera were able to tour campus, get to know each other, chat with faculty, play games, win prizes and more! Thank you to all that participated and we will see you next year!

What does it look like to use AI well—not just more? September’s Industry + Career Series brought @honda Research Institute’s 99P Labs and @vaisalagroup to MS-DS for two conversations about building, experimenting and thinking critically about what comes next. With 99P Labs, students dug into using AI more effectively while keeping the right checks and balances in place. Their name comes from a Soichiro Honda philosophy: success is the 1% that comes from the other 99% of experimentation and failure. Pretty fitting for a research lab—and for data science. Vaisala turned the conversation toward a bigger question: What future do you actually want to build? Both companies are MS-DS Capstone partners, giving students opportunities to take conversations like these into real project work. Pictured here are members of one of our Vaisala Capstone partnerships! Thanks to our partners for spending time with our students—and giving them plenty to think about beyond the classroom. #CUBoulder #DataScience #MSDS #DataScienceCareers #ArtificialIntelligence #Capstone #IndustryPartnerships #CareerDevelopment by @cuboulderdatascience
Grad school advice hits differently after you've actually started, so we asked MS-DS students and graduates what they wish they'd known beforehand. Their answers weren't about having everything figured out. They were much more practical: brush up on the technical skills you haven't used lately. Use the prep materials. Start earlier than you think you need to. Find a system for managing your time. Learn with other people. And if internships or applied projects are part of your goal, don't wait until the end of the program to start thinking about them. One important caveat for anyone considering an MS in Data Science: these are individual students' experiences, not a checklist of things you need to master before graduate school. Your starting point will look different depending on your background. Knowing where others grew the most can help you do the same. Current students: What would you add to the list? Future grad students: Which one would you start working on now? . . . #DataScience #MSDS #GradSchool #GraduateSchool #DataScienceStudent #DataScienceEducation #Python #RProgramming #Statistics #CUBoulder #CUBoulderEngineering #DataScienceCareer by @cuboulderdatascience
Meet Samuel 👋 @sbmeaux19 His path to data science didn’t start in computer science, as you might expect. After studying Industrial and Systems Engineering at Virginia Tech, Samuel commissioned into the U.S. Army, where his work has centered on communications systems, IT management, and planning. Now, as an on-campus MS-DS student at @cuboulder he’s adding data science, AI, and machine learning to that background — while getting a little more time with his family along the way. We appreciated Samuel’s candor about programming. If that part of his experience sounds familiar: you’re definitely not the only one. Students enter data science with different strengths, and programming can be a steeper part of the learning curve for some. For future students, one practical takeaway: building some Python experience before starting can make that transition easier. There’s more than one path into data science. Samuel’s is one of them. What's yours? Share with us! #datascience #CUBoulder #DataBuff #OurDataStory #MSDS #Programming #DataScientist by @cuboulderdatascience

There’s something powerful about standing at the start of something new. The first semester, first project. The first time you realize you’re thinking differently than you did before. For many of you, that shift will start here! Welcome to the beginning. And for those of you returning, welcome back. #DataScience #WelcomeBack #CUBoulder #DataBuff by @cuboulderdatascience
