Course description
You encounter data science in nearly every aspect of your daily life. When you grab your smartphone in the morning, countless algorithms operate behind the scenes. These algorithms work when you type a term into a search engine, use a navigation app to find the quickest route, or interact with a voice assistant. Even weather forecasts rely on data science algorithms. In the Data Science degree course, you'll dive into how these processes function. You'll not only learn to apply them but also to develop them further. The curriculum covers the theoretical foundations of statistics and their practical implementation using modern computer science methods. You'll master extracting characteristics from vast amounts of data—think big data—and making this stored knowledge useful for both humans and machines. The course also emphasizes ethical considerations, ensuring you handle data responsibly in the future.
