Master’s Programme in Data Science, Statistics and Decision Analysis (MSc)

The program focuses on how to draw smart conclusions from a large amount of data to make well-informed decisions. In today's society, data is generated with great variety, in enormous amounts and at high speed. This data is becoming increasingly complex. We are constantly connected with computers and smartphones, we are surrounded by cameras and sensors that monitor and measure.

Automation and digitization in a large number of areas and industries are becoming increasingly important and most companies and authorities store large amounts of data about their customers, users and processes. Analysis of large amounts of medical data is becoming an increasingly important tool in healthcare.

The program consists of courses in three subfields: data science, statistics and decision analysis. The programme is a collaboration with the Department of Statistics at Stockholm University.
