The remaining 12 elective hours may be from either the DC or DA category and may include courses from both categories (x4 courses)

Category 1: Digital Culture

Coursework from English, writing, fine arts, and communication.

Digital culture outcomes

  1. Students will critically assess the social and/or historical contexts of digital cultures by interrogating the norms and conventions of those cultures and the values they represent.

  2. Students will demonstrate an ability to compose digital arguments.

Category 2: Data Analytics

Coursework from criminal justice, economics, geography, political science and math.

Data analytics outcomes

  1. Coding: Students will develop intermediate proficiency or greater with at least one coding languages used for spatial/statistical analysis (STATA, R, Python).

  2. Students will be able to present the results of their analysis in a variety of formats including plots and graphs, digital mapping and cartography, online data presentation formats.

With the approval of the academic dean, up to two courses (or six hours), including the statistics requirement, may count for both major and minor requirements. For example, if the student seeks a DCDA minor and a STCO major, course (Digital Storytelling) could potentially count toward the requirements for the minor and the requirements for the major, with approval and not in excess of 6 credit hours.
