I was pleased to learn that my alma mater UCLA has taken a very innovative direction by creating a new Data Theory undergraduate major, a collaboration of the Mathematics and Statistics departments. The video presentation below is a recent panel discussion that explains the genesis of the new major: Data Theory in the World Seminar: How Data Drives Business Decisions. I think you’ll enjoy the panel discussion and learn valuable insights about UCLA’s Data Theory and its important applications in the world.
