The Bachelor of Science in Data Science is a 4-year program that equips the graduates with the necessary knowledge and skills to draw sound conclusions from data in an era where all industries are data-driven. This academic programme is designed to allow students to comprehend the entire life cycle of data and prepare them to compile, interpret and act on data based on computational and statistical modelling.
During the first three years of the study, students will study core modules in data science, such as programming languages, algorithms, data mining, and business intelligence tools. In their final year, students will have the opportunity to specialise in either Artificial Intelligence or Business Analytics.
The Artificial Intelligence Pathway will allow students to utilise cutting-edge technologies to manage large amounts of data to gain insights and facilitate decision-making. This involves gaining hands-on experience by learning related topics, such as machine learning, robotics, and human-computer interactions.
The Business Analytics Pathway focuses on the statistical aspects of data analysis to facilitate data interpretation, presentation, and prediction. This is done through various modules, such as forensic analysis and financial modelling.
