Here’s a link to minors at UCLA including the new minors oddly denoted by “new” in black beside their listing.
The two in the heading caught my eye. Data Science Engineering has two prereqs, Math 33A and Computer Science 32, but to get to Math 33A, one would have needed to have taken the four calculus courses before it (or get AP credit AB or BC with fives), and to get to CS 32, one would have needed to have taken CS 31. Click on its link in the link listed above to get the full schedule of what’s needed. It looks like it’s open to all majors, probably excepting those in engineering because of their tight sched. I’m wondering, too, if Data Theory majors might combine their major with this minor.
For the Social Data Science minor, it’s open to all those who are social-science majors: Sociology, History, Economics, Anthro, etc. So for those worried that their social-science major isn’t prepping them for a profession, this might put them over the top, including other professions-related minors like accounting and a few others. Stats either in doubling or minoring is becoming more popular across effectively all majors, because it’s relatively short.
