Masters Data Science

[allvia]

...I'd like to move on to data science. I've been taking some data science classes and really enjoy it but a masters is really required for data science.
....
I'd like to keep tuition under $20,000 for the program, so under $700/credit. I'm okay with international programs as long as they're accredited in whatever is local to the program. I haven't seen any competency based data science grad programs, but I'd be interested in them if anyone knows of one.

Eastern University
https://www.eastern.edu/academics/gradua...ta-science - $9900, I believe I've heard this isn't as technical/practical as some others?

Although the Eastern program isn't exactly competency based it has the making being pretty close if you're already competent, and good still if you're not at all. I had to put my attendance on hold in the program due to the demands/interests of my employer wanting me to pursue the PM side of my job (and since its their $ paying for it...). A member, Dustin, from the sister-board is giving a great deal of insight into the program as he's working through it - https://www.degreeinfo.com/index.php?thr...10k.57214/

Also, I don't know anything about it myself but I'll add the link to the edX one offered through 'The University of Texas at Austin' for $10K - https://www.edx.org/masters/online-maste...-utaustinx
