DATA SCIENCE

Data Science encompasses the generation of insights and value from raw data and is
the core of digital businesses across all sectors. It’s a field that requires a diverse mix
of capabilities and skills—and never gets boring. Data informs key decisions, leads to
optimisation of existing processes, and is the enabler of entirely new business models
via data insights and automation.The IUBH bachelor in Data Science is an ideal oppor-
tunity to dive deep into the technical skills step-by-step—with a hands-on approach and
expert guidance. Our professors make sure you gain the hacking skills, math and statis-
tical knowledge, and domain expertise needed with the right balance of supervised and
independent study. We put much emphasis on practical work throughout your degree,
helping you to acquire a portfolio of projects to demonstrate your skills once you gradu-
ate. When you take a bachelor‘s degree in data science you join the data revolution that is
leading major changes in businesses, economies, and societies today.
