Data Science

Data Science involves the study of information—where it comes from and the patterns it forms—and how to turn this data into a resource for business, government, and social strategies. Data Scientists are investigators, storytellers, and problem-solvers who organize information, find unique ways to communicate its salient points, and think of creative ways to apply it to real-world situations. The DCU BSc in Data Science combines the three key skill sets of computing, mathematics, and enterprise to provide the core knowledge needed to succeed in this growing area.  The course will introduce students to the major concepts in data analytics, management, processing, modeling, visualization, and enterprise.  Partnering with the industry provides opportunities to engage with real-world problems and data sets. You will learn to program, study mathematics, and learn to apply these skills to data from the real world, communicating the results to different audiences.
