- Description/content
- Designed for professional data lovers with a STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) background, our Master of Science in Data Analytics and Decision Science (DDS) teaches you a unique set of skills to put data-driven approaches into practice and create value for business from data.
The DDS programme is positioned at the intersection of data analytics and operations research and brings together expertise from a wide range of fields: mathematical optimisation, machine learning, heuristic algorithm, design and simulation. This very unique combination will give you a competitive advantage in your chosen field.
Graduates of the programme are working across all fields and industries. In fact, it is hard to come up with an industry or service that is not directly or indirectly impacted by data and algorithm driven decision making. The competence to derive decisions under uncertain and ever-changing environments is highly sought after in each industry.
