Requirements
Entry Requirements
Applying for a Master's degree generally requires you to hold an undergraduate degree, such as a Bachelor's degree. A first degree in either computer science or mathematics qualifies you for this Master's degree in any case. A degree in information systems or natural sciences qualifies you if your first degree strongly emphasised content from the areas of computer science or mathematics. Depending on your background, bridge modules can complete gaps in the other respective discipline.
You can find the exact prerequisites for admission in the subject-specific admission regulations for the Master's degree programme in data science.
