This requires data specialists who can make targeted decisions and derivations based on this data. The career-integrated Master Data Science provides students with methodological knowledge in the field of Data Analysis in order to exploit the potential of this data. Graduates have a wide range of career opportunities in a future-oriented industry. In addition, the certificate "Data Analystics" can be acquired.
