This joint bachelor brings together the best of two universities; Tilburg University's expertise in Econometrics, Business Administration and Law is combined with Eindhoven University of Technology's expertise in Mathematics, Computer Science and Engineering. Both universities add their expertise in Artificial Intelligence and Statistics. You will be taking courses at both universities.

In the first year, you are introduced to the various Data Science core fields, like computer science and data analytics. You develop a mathematical base which you will build on during the rest of your studies. You will explore the important area of law and ethics to become a responsible data scientist. And you will also learn more about the main application domains and the broader social and economic setting of data science developments. Besides that, you complete your first Data Challenge, where you work in groups to analyze real data for real stakeholders.
In the second year, you study the legal, mathematical, statistical, technical and business aspects of data research more in-depth. You determine part of your program yourself by selecting elective modules, which allows you to tailor your own program. You will apply all your acquired knowledge and skills in two Data Challenges.
Entrepreneurship plays a greater role in the third year, which features courses such as Start-ups and Business Insights. There is a more extensive choice of electives. You can -for example - choose electives that give you the best preparation for the Master’s program you are planning to take. You complete the Bachelor’s program with a Bachelor's thesis.
