Data Science for Decision Making

Students use tools & models from applied mathematics to examine decision making & the concept of optimisation. English-language, 2-year programme focuses on mathematical and computing skills.

The modern world is full of information, data and knowledge that can be explored and synthesised to help us gain deeper understanding of underlying mechanisms and thus make better decisions. The Operations Research programme uses tools and models from applied mathematics to examine decision making and the concept of optimisation. In doing so it offers an exclusive combination of courses and aims to develop your mathematical as well as software and computing skills. It has a variety of applications in key areas of society, including economics, telecommunications, bioinformatics, engineering, healthcare, ICT, logistics and the process industry. This is a two-year programme taught in English.
