About The Programme

While data science is still a relatively new career field, employers are increasingly recognizing the value of employees who have this expertise. Today, data scientists are working at a range of organizations, including in fields such as product development, marketing, and public health, as well as scientific research in areas like genomics, drug discovery, climate science, neuroscience, particle physics, and research institutions. The sheer amount of data available to firms and the tools used to analyze this information has expanded tremendously in the past decade.
