No, credit cannot be granted for similar courses taken as part of another program toward the MicroMasters Program Credential in Statistics and Data Science. Only the specific courses that are part of the MicroMasters Program Tracks are eligible for credit. To receive the Program Credential, all learners must successfully complete the four required courses that constitute one of the four SDS Program Tracks, as well as the Capstone Exam—as outlined in the program requirements. Completion of courses outside of the MicroMasters program cannot be counted towards earning the Program Credential.
