Big data major will involve many computer courses, including programming, data structure, algorithm design, machine learning and so on. Different universities will add some big data-related courses according to their actual situation. For example, universities of finance and economics often offer courses that combine economics, finance and big data.

Big data is a typical interdisciplinary subject. Choosing a big data major needs to learn three major contents, including mathematics, statistics and computers, so the overall knowledge is still relatively large and it is difficult to learn.

If the math foundation is weak, you should be careful when choosing a big data major. The wave of big data has swept the world, with a wide range of applications, large industrial scale, wide employment, comparable value to gold and oil, and endless "money".
