Master of Data Science

About this programme

Data science is one of the most sought-after professions of the 21st century. With lives increasingly being lived online, nearly every individual leaves behind a data trail that is as valuable as gold in this digital age. With this increasing generation of data, there is also an ever-increasing demand for specialists who are able to structure, analyse and process it. This work is done by data scientists. Given the continuing demand for data scientists, and the expected accelerated growth of this profession over the next few decades, Memorial has developed the Master of Data Science (MDSc). Jointly offered by the Departments of Mathematics and Statistics and Computer Science, it is a one-year program aiming to equip students with the foundations of data science and provide them with practical techniques needed to effectively translate data into knowledge, communicate the findings, and help in the decision-making process.
