Data and Web Science

Master's

The main subject of the master's degree program is specialization in Data and Web Science. Efficient and effective data management is a critical issue given the exponential growth of data and the rapid development of Web technologies that pose new challenges. These challenges arise at all levels of the Informatics stage in terms of infrastructure, management, access and exploitation of information to extract knowledge that will be provided in an immediate way and open new possibilities for the development of science and innovation. The purpose of the graduate program is to train graduate students in Data Science and the World Wide Web to be able to either work directly in industry in related jobs, or to undertake research and doctoral theses. We aim for a flexible curriculum that includes both basic and advanced topics and offers strong resources in the fields of Data Science and Web Science.
