Similarities in Data Challenges across different fields
The amount of data in the world has grown dramatically over the past few years and continues to do so. With this, there is a growing need to effectively and safely put this data to use. As opposed to fundamental research into data science, the field of Applied Data Science is unique in that it recognizes similarities in data challenges across different fields. In this Master’s programme, we’ll examine the optimal ways to utilise those data. In the process, we’ll look at how to turn old data into new data and use it to solve problems within a variety of domains.
