Achieve master’s level in extracting knowledge from data and build the core competencies required to become a Data Scientist leader who can define tomorrow’s new directions and innovations today.
During this MSc in Data Science, you will acquire the necessary expertise in a variety of applied modules that focus on Data Science Fundamentals, Data Science Methods and Computer Science.
XU's is currently offering partial scholarships up to 40% for the October 2023 intake. International students have the possibility to start online and join on campus once they receive their visa.
The Data Fundamental modules will connect all relevant aspects of data science. This includes Operations, Applications and Innovations. You will deepen your practical skills in data science and process management projects as well as in the necessary programming languages and applications. One such example comes from the field of predictive analysis in which you will learn to address customers more specifically based on their potential behavior.
Within the Data Science Methods module, you will broaden your competences in predictive and prescriptive analysis. Practical project work will enable you to determine how these methods are applied and how you can derive reliable and relevant forecasts from your data analysis.
The Computer Science module gives you detailed insights into how new technologies and methods of Parallel Computing, Cognitive Computing and Disruptive Computing are applied to data science projects and used in practice.
During your master’s program, you will expand your existing knowledge of Digital Leadership with a two-phase Leadership Assessment (in the first and fourth semesters).
In addition, you will establish consulting competences as part of a practice project and deepen your qualitative and quantitative research methods during a practice-oriented research project.
This also applies to your elective subjects. You decide which specialization suits you best. When making your choice, be sure to consider the experience you have gained from jobs, internships and projects and the demands that the job market places on you.
