아래 대 분류 섹션은 각 대학교의 DS 프로그램의 커리큘럼 내용입니다. 큰 그림으로 보면 미국의 이런 프로그램은 대개 “Math와 Stat,” “Comp Sci”의 과목이 주가 되는 듯 싶습니다. 미디어학과의 경우, “미디어” 사용이라는 도메인(혹은 익스퍼트) 지식이 연계된 내용이 포함이 되어야 할 텐데, 이런 예가 많지 않습니다. 아래는 다른 프로그램들에 기초해서 학생들에게 제공할 수 있는 내용을 정리해 본 것입니다.

기초(Foundation)

1. 기초
2. 수학
3. 전산
4. (사회)심리, 경영, 경제 기초

심화(Advanced)

• 아래에서 첫단계는 분야입니다. (콘텐츠산업, 금융공학, 등등)
• 두번째 단계는 세부 분야입니다 (콘텐츠산업 밑에 데이터저널리즘).
• 세번째 단계는 관련 수업이나 교육제목입니다 (데이터저널리즘을 위해서는 데이터마이닝, 데이터비주얼라이제이선, . . . 등의 수업이 필요함)
• 두번째와 세번째 단계를 개개인이 콘트리뷰션해 주시면 좋겠습니다. 나중에 필요없다 싶으면 지우고 정리하고 하는 작업이 있으면 되니 부담갖지 마시고 관련 수업이나 내용을 적어 주시면 되겠습니다.

1. 데이터 시스템 (하둡과 같은 데이터 관리 시스템 지식: 미디어학과와는 거리가 좀 있음)
2. 금융공학
3. 콘텐츠 산업관련 서비스
   1. 데이터 저널리즘
      1. 데이터 마이닝
      2. 소셜미디어 분석
      3. 데이터 비주얼라이제이션
   2. 빅 데이터 분석기반 광고
      1. 데이터 마이닝
      2. 소셜미디어 분석
      3. 데이터 비주얼라이제이션
   3. 웹서비스
      1. 웹 아날리틱스
   4. 영상, 음악 서비스
      1. 데이터 분석에 기반한 영상, 음악 추천 서비스
4. 게임
5. 에듀테인먼트
6. 부상, 부각되는 분야
   1. 의료 서비스
   2. 군사 관련 서비스
   3. 투자 관련 서비스
