The master degree's in Data Science equips graduates with solid foundations and hands-on experience in fundamental aspects of data management and analysis to extract hidden knowledge from structured and unstructured big data and in building adaptive analytical systems that are able to exploit that knowledge in modern organizations. In particular, graduate students will be prepared to address the new challenges of the so-called data-driven society and develop systems based on data to tackle relevant topics such as fraud detection, bioinformatics and e-health, information extraction from highly unstructured data, real time analysis of sensor data and social networks, customer relationship management, etc. The master's degree in Data Science has been designed with the objective of training highly qualified professionals who will be provided with fundamental understanding and the required competences (that is, the combination of knowledge and skills) to apply their learning in the demanding field of Data Science. Therefore, this program will generate highly innovative, interdisciplinary professionals with a strong research-oriented perspective, specially prepared to face the challenges identified by industry.
