最近在研究BA/DS的学校所以扒出了几个新项目。。。USCD家算一个！阳光啊！沙滩啊！而且SD的墨西哥食物真的很好吃啊！！！！好了废话不说，说说项目。通过电话和邮件跟小米确认了不少信息，跟大家分享一下。
1）项目预计招收多少人？
小米：目前没有确定，会根据申请人数的多少来决定项目大小。
2）项目有先修课要求么？
小米直接给我发的官网信息：
It is expected that most successful applicants will have either (i) an undergraduate degree in a quantitative discipline such as mathematics, economics, statistics, physics, engineering, or computer science, or (ii) five or more years of work experience in the public or private sector. Students with a non-quantitative undergraduate degree and less than five years of work experience will be considered on an exceptional basis if (1) their work experience is in the area of business analytics or marketing research or (2) they have developed a strong quantitative background through additional coursework or relevant work experience. The program will only admit students who have a solid foundation in quantitative methods, particularly knowledge of probability and statistics and the use of statistical applications such as R, SAS, STATA, and Matlab. Additionally, each student must demonstrate evidence of programming proficiency from prior college coursework, professional experience, a certificate from a continuing education program, or a Coursera course on R-programming.
总体看来背景要求还是挺高的。
3）项目多长？预计什么时间开学？
小米：项目4个quarters，50个unit，预计12个月可以完成。开学时间未定，以往来看9月底开学。
4）项目是STEM么？
小米：是STEM。
5）项目费用多少？有没有奖学金？给奖比例？
小米：$52,900学费，保险（optional）3414$, 生活费估算2w上下。提供 merit-based fellowships，国际学生可以申请，无需额外申请。给奖比例大概10-30%。
6）就业服务如何？
小米：有capstone project会与企业合作。
私下看了一下SD的MBA还就业统计，感觉不太乐观。
------------------------------------------------------------------------
吐槽：总体来说项目很新，很多东西还无从参考，之前听别人讨论过他家的课程设置。相比其他BA项目课程设置偏文，但是录取对quantitative background要求又很高。。感觉项目定位并不是很准。
附上小米发来的program flier给大家。。貌似太大了。。只能截图了
