Data Science in Business and Economics (MSc)

About

Data science is a vibrant, interdisciplinary and rapidly growing field. More and more firms and institutions are hiring data scientists, and data scientist has been America's top job for the third year according to Glassdoor. Data scientists must be able to acquire, understand, and analyse complex and unstructured data, to interpret the meaning of the results, and to communicate the results to relevant stakeholders. Hence, data science requires a unique combination of (1) econometrics and statistics, (2) programming skills, and (3) domain knowledge. This four-semester MSc programme reflects these requirements to provide its graduates with a unique skill set. Students who enrol in this programme specialise in econometrics and select further modules from a broad set of options on different aspects of business and economics. On top of that, students complete modules on data science techniques, which includes programming in R and Python as well as the possibility to enrol in courses in Machine Learning in collaboration with the computer science department.
