Overview
The Industrial Analytics program from Uppsala University combines technology and management, which you will learn more about to be able to develop and optimise systems within various industrial domains such as manufacturing, medtech and healthcare systems.
In addition, the programme integrates both theoretical and practical knowledge based on the latest research in industrial analytics. As a student in the programme, you can expect to gain a comprehensive understanding of how you can use operations management, operational research and computer science for the successful development and operation of modern industrial systems.
Career:
A number of reports from established organisations and companies have highlighted the demand in analytics. The reports have particularly emphasised a number of specialisations in digitalisation such as data handling, data mining, AI, machine learning, application development, but also "softer" aspects such as production management, sales, and innovations.
Upon completion of your degree, you may choose to remain in academia and pursue a PhD, for instance in technical physics with specialisation in industrial engineering or computer science. Additional PhD study subjects may also be available at UU or other universities.
Programme Structure
Curriculum:
- The Master's Programme in Industrial Analytics comprises a set of courses that result in a Master's degree in industrial engineering or computer science. The choice between these two specialisations comes down to which courses you opt to take and are eligible for. As such, the programme has two main tracks: one oriented toward industrial engineering, and one toward computer science.
- The programme intersperses industrial engineering courses with information technology courses throughout every semester. In addition, orientating and theoretical courses are combined, where methods such as digital models, simulation, optimisation, large-scale data management and data analytics, artificial intelligence and connectivity through the internet are used.
- The programme concludes with a degree project, which can be done internally within any of the research groups of the Department, or externally within the private sector.
