Computational Data Science

Overview

We live in a digital society. Human and automated activities continuously generate data, storing them in digital format. These data come from everywhere: enterprise information systems, social media, wearable equipment, and many more.

Data are like crude oil: unrefined, they are useless.

In the Master in Computational Data Science at Free University of Bozen-Bolzano , we teach you how to become a computational data scientist, i.e. a computer scientist specialised in the development of next-generation information systems.

Career opportunities

Typical job profiles are:

• Data Analysts that evaluate, interpret, and analyse large and complex data collections of an organisation, in order to gain new insight from data;
• Data Engineers that design, implement, deploy, and maintain software solutions for data management and analysis;
• Data Architects that design and manage complex IT infrastructures supporting the acquisition, maintenance, cleaning, sharing and integration of enterprise data.
