Such professionals help industry and business with their decision-making processes based on real, actionable data or become innovative entrepreneurs in the data science ecosystem.
The PDEng program Data Science from Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) combines techniques from statistics, computer science, mathematics, and design theory with the business acumen to explore data sets, gather insights, visualize results, and communicate meaningful findings, whilst taking account of underlying ethical and legal constraints.
Its graduates make sense of data and have the ability to articulate their discoveries and recommendations regarding industrial and business design and decision processes to those not schooled in the world of data.
Leading companies, markets, and businesses in many fields are hiring big data infrastructure professionals at doctorate level to help them store, explore, process, access, visualize the terabytes of data that they collect daily.
While the volume of data produced and stored grows exponentially, there is a severe shortage of talent to design, maintain, and optimize data infrastructure and data pipelines and to turn complex and unstructured data into valuable business insights. More than 90% of the foreign graduates from the PDEng program Data Science find a first job in The Netherlands.
