Data Science & Technology

The richness and importance of the information conveyed by data has led to a rapid increase in the influence of data on individuals and society.
Data of various kinds, such as the enormous data collections on the Internet, has become omnipresent in virtually all aspects of our society. Digital data has become the key to innovations in both social and scientific domains ranging from energy, economy, health and climate to bioinformatics and web science.

In the Data Science and Technology track of the Computer Science MSc programme, you will learn how to engineer and develop systems capable of processing and interpreting massive data sets to extract important information. Fundamental and practical issues of the analysis of data will be addressed, including e.g. security of data and software, visualization of information, decision making from data, and high performance computing algorithms.
