Description:

The master’s programme in Data Science aims at providing a practically oriented and scientifically sound education in the field of modern data science. Data science is an essential driving force in today’s digital world. In almost all areas of the economy, large amounts of data are collected and generated. Recently, data-driven methods have also found their way into various parts of the natural sciences and humanities. The task of data science is to gain knowledge from ever bigger volumes of data, which represents added value for the respective area. This requires not only the development of efficient algorithms, but also a basic understanding of the interpretability and reliability of results. A diverse and interdisciplinary competence profile is required, which particularly includes the practical handling of large amounts of data, a solid mathematical and statistical foundation as well as knowledge in the respective area of application. In addition, the rapid developments in data science raise ethical and legal questions. The master’s programme in Data Science at the University of Vienna extensively reflects all these core competencies and puts an emphasis on the interdisciplinary and heterogeneous character of Data Science, which is ensured by means of a specialisation in individual areas.
