- Description/content
- Data Science deals with the extraction of knowledge and usable information from data. The available data sets are often very large, heterogeneous, and partially unreliable. Data Science is an interdisciplinary field with its roots in computer science, mathematics, and statistics, and it has a strong link to various application areas.
The essential constituents of data science are data analysis and systems engineering. Therefore, this course of study will convey modern methods of data analysis as well as algorithms and techniques for the development of information systems.
