Program Overview
Our Bachelor’s degree in Data Science (BS-DS) is a full-time, four-year program that provides strong computing skills with basic training of data analysis in mathematical and statistical perspective. It is an integrated course, particularly designed on the basic principles of statistics and computer science.
A comprehensive study of Data Science (BS-DS) applies core concepts in specialist areas of data mining, statistical modeling, algorithm design, and machine learning is important to understand the huge amount of data daily generated in modern world in various fields form finance to social networks.
Known for its dual emphasis on statistics and computer science, this degree aims to prepare students with strong analytical abilities and programming experience in data management, data analysis, and data-centric programming. You will learn sophisticated computing, mathematical and statistical skills necessary for processing the data information.
As a holistic program, BS in data Science encapsulates latest technology to obtain values from data or develop similar technology. In the long run, our students are appropriately equipped to lead careers in a wide variety of fields from social, physical, and biomedical sciences to arts and humanities.
Modules
Our program structure is divided up into core courses, foundation courses, general courses, and electives to complete the degree of Data Science. The curriculum offers a flexible mixture of core/compulsory and optional modules. Through the optional module, you may choose to spend a year in a research exchange program, which will help you throughout your career.
There has been a concerted effort to develop skills for data collection, data analysis, data representation, data management, and data retrieval to prepare students in all areas of importance to Data Science.
An overview of complete BS Data Science program structure and course distribution is mentioned below.
Teaching
Our teaching methods consist of lectures, tutorials, computer-based lab sessions, seminars, workshops, online learning, and independent study. You will be guided al about the studies, mainly about time for preparing classes, completion of research projects, and reading of primary texts.
