 ===== Requirement of the 4+1 Degree Program =====
 Students complete most of the coursework for the bachelor's degree in the first three years. In the fourth year, students take both bachelor's- and master's-level courses, graduate with a bachelor's degree and formally apply to the Graduate School. In the fifth year, the student is admitted to the Graduate School and focus solely on graduate coursework.
-The M.A. program in Statistics has six required 4-credits courses (Math 501, Math 502, Math 530, Math 531, Math 532, Math 535) in year one (i.e. year 4 for 4+1 program students), four 4-credits electives courses from a list of approved courses and two 1-credit capstone seminars in year two (i.e. year 5 for 4+1 program students), for a total of 42 credits.
+The M.S. program in Data Science and Statistics has six required 4-credits courses (Math 501, Math 502, Math 530, Math 531, Math 532, Math 535) in year one (i.e. year 4 for 4+1 program students), four 4-credits electives courses from a list of approved courses and two 1-credit capstone seminars in year two (i.e. year 5 for 4+1 program students), for a total of 42 credits.
-The coursework that the student completes differs and depends on the specific major and track in the Mathematical Sciences program. However, all students in the 4+1 program should have finished 329, 447 and 448 with a grade of B or better before the 4th year. These courses are prerequisite for a graduate study in statistics and may be required by or be electives for the undergraduate degree (depending on the undergraduate major and track).

These courses are prerequisite for a graduate study in statistics and may be required by or be electives for the undergraduate degree (depending on the undergraduate major and track).
 A few graduate courses taken in the 4th year can be counted toward the bachelor’s degree. The number of graduate courses that may be double counted depends on the type of the bachelor’s degree.
