You will develop specialist competencies through a 30 ECTS specialisation package. You can choose between the following four packages:
STUDENT LIFE
The master's degree programme in Data Science is primarily based at the Department of Mathematics, as well as the departments of Computer Science, Economics and Business Economics, and Electrical and Computer Engineering, depending on your choice of specialisation package and other elective elements. The Department of Mathematics has its own canteen, computer rooms, library, and study areas available for students to use. As a master’s student, you will be given your own desk in an office shared with other master’s students. Data Science has its own student organisation, Datavendskab, and the department also has a number of student organisations, such as Euler’s Friends (Eulers Venner) and the Kalkulerbar (Friday bar), that organise lectures on current maths topics, study excursions, and social functions.
CAREERS
A degree in Data Science provides job opportunities in many different companies and organisations. The common denominator is the need to create data-driven solutions in these companies and organisations, for example in the wind turbine industry, consultancy firms, pharmaceutical companies, the telecommunications industry, the food industry, the healthcare sector etc. You may also choose to continue your studies on the PhD degree programme, and pursue a career in research.
