Graduate Degree Choices for Data Science I'm currently finishing up a B.S. in mathematics and would like to attend graduate school (a master's degree for starters, with the possibility of a subsequent Ph.D.) with an eye toward entering the field of data science. I'm also particularly interested in machine learning.

What are the graduate degree choices that would get me to where I want to go?

Is there a consensus as to whether a graduate degree in applied mathematics, statistics, or computer science would put me in a better position to enter the field of data science?

Thank you all for the help, this is a big choice for me and any input is very much appreciated. Typically I ask my questions on Mathematics Stack Exchange, but I thought asking here would give me a broader and better rounded perspective.
Why not do an MSc in ooh... Data Science?

I wrote a quick review of UK Data Science Masters' offerings recently. That should help you get an idea what is offered. Mostly they are mashups of stats and computing, but there are specialisms (health, finance for example) that might interest you.

Note that list was compiled for courses that have already started, so some of those courses might not be available for starting next October, or have different syllabus contents.
