About

If you have an interest in technology and trends, Computer Science with Data Science & Artificial Intelligence*** could be for you. Computer Science with Data Science & Artificial Intelligence is one of the degree subjects available through the common entry Computer Science course.

***The title of the degree subject Computer Science with Data Science is now changed to Computer Science with Data Science & Artificial Intelligence to more accurately reflect the content of the degree and emphasise the importance of modern Artificial Intelligence in the degree programme. This change applies to all Computer Science applicants applying to UCD for entry 2025. Modules are updated on an ongoing basis and are subject to change.

At its core, data science is about extracting insights from data that can transform the way a company operates. For example, understanding data can match millions of businesses with new customers around the world in the areas of advertising and e-commerce. Mining large-scale data sets based on our health can inform pharmaceutical companies when choosing new medicines to develop and capturing data streams from wearable devices can improve our understanding of our habits and routines. Agri-food, energy, transport, government and education are all examples of industries on the verge of being transformed by the power of data-driven methods.
