Center for Data, Mathematical, and Computational Sciences
Ramapo College’s Center for Data, Mathematical, and Computational Sciences (CDMC) is a collaboration between our Data Science, Computer Science, and Mathematics departments. CDMC primarily supports Ramapo College’s three Master of Science degrees in tech – Applied Mathematics, Computer Science, and Data Science.
The mission of the Center is to:
- Promote a modern image of liberal arts, where quantitative skills and digital literacy are recognized as critical to all disciplines.
- Produce graduates at the undergraduate and graduate level that are skilled, and credentialed, in applying technical concepts to real-world problems.
- Drive impact by embedding students and faculty in mission-driven organizations, and to serve as a resource to the community, to solve real-world problems with data and technology.
Undergraduate Degrees
Graduate Degrees
All of our MS degrees can be completed within 18 months and include in-person and online asynchronous classes. You can complete the degrees in 18 months while coming to campus no more than one night each week from 6pm-9:15pm!
All programs accommodate part time, working students – you can work at whatever pace fits your schedule!
5 year B.S. to M.S. Option (4+1)
If you are a Ramapo undergraduate, you can finish your MS in even less time – just one extra calendar year, and with a 30% savings on tuition.
A key feature of our MS programs is the opportunities for students to complete their BS and MS degrees in just 5 total years at Ramapo, through our 4+1 pathways. Students majoring in Computer Science, Data Science, Cybersecurity, Mathematics, and Bioinformatics as undergraduates can enroll in any of our MS degree pathways – allowing them to complete graduate courses as seniors, and earn their Master’s degree in the following year.
