The students will be introduced to recent trends in Big Data. Seminars will be lectured by guest speakers, who will present business cases, research topics, internships and master's thesis subjects. Also, the three specialisations will be presented and discussed with the students within the seminars umbrella. Students will also perform a state-of-the art research in one topic, which will be presented and jointly evaluated by all partners in the mandatory eBISS summer school. Participation in the summer school is also included in this course.

Teaching methodology

This course is based on seminars. During the semester the student will be mandatorily attend the course seminars and learn about new topics or practices related with Big Data.

To show the comprehension of one of these areas, the student must generate a state-of-the-art in group of 2-3 people.

Evaluation methodology

Final Mark = 50% R + 50% RPr where,

R = The mark obtained on the written state-of-the-art report,
RPr = Face-to-face presentation of the report

Attendance to the summer school seminars and attend face-to-face the poster session there is mandatory and required to pass this course.
