Data Science

Introduction

As the world has entered the era of big data, the need for processing big data is required. The use of Big Data will become the basis of competition and growth for industry and business. Data Science is the secret recipe here. Data Science is a blend of various technology tools, statistics, and machine learning with the goal of discovering hidden patterns from the raw data. It can enhance productivity and create significant value for the world economy by increasing the quality of products and services and reducing waste. The students will solve complex data problems with their strong Data Science expertise. They will use the latest technologies in finding solutions and reaching conclusions. The program can be completed within 3.5-4 years. Furthermore, to provide one-year work experience for students, there are industrial internships, interesting research, or entrepreneurship programs.
