Dual DegreeMASTER OF SCIENCE (MS) in DATA SCIENCE AND AI

MASTER OF SCIENCE (MS) in DATA SCIENCE AND AI

PROGRAMME OVERVIEW:

MS Data Science & AI provides huge career growth. The data science industry is booming, with job opportunities projected to increase by 36 percent by 2031. As data and technology become integral to various sectors such as healthcare, digital marketing, financial services, technology, retail, media, and telecommunications, the demand for professionals who can manage and interpret this data continues to rise.

Our MS Data Science & AI programme is designed and quality assured by doctoral and post-doctoral Professors along with industry experts with huge experience. Learners study 12 modules and a Capstone Consulting Project with an industry mentor. All modules are assessed using project based assignment, and a Capstone Consulting Project and a Master Thesis towards the end of the programme with an industry mentor.

In addition, all our learners become member of our Competency Lab to develop Career, Research and Entrepreneurial Skills, along with Digital Skills in the programme. Our learners are facilitated in preparing public portfolio such as publications, or own GitHub, etc. which allows them boost their profile and promote employability.

Curriculum And Structure

Students will discover the concepts and gain expertise in the usage and applications of algorithms of Data Science and Artificial Intelligence. They will have abundant opportunities to plunge into advanced concepts. Through hands-on projects, students will gain experience on the concepts behind search algorithms, clustering, classification, optimization, reinforcement learning and other topics such as deep learning, computer vision, natural language processing techniques and incorporate the learning in Python.

This programme would enable students to embrace the concepts of DS and AI and understand their extension to its application. Students will work on projects involving AI in healthcare, education, finance, manufacturing sectors etc. Meticulously designed curriculum suitable to the industry needs with a high focus on practical applications.

Assessments

We follows continuous and end of the module assessment. Continuous assessment is conducted within various units studied by the learner, and counts towards the final grades, the weightage of continuous assessment is 40%. The nature of continuous assessment is normally multiple choice questions.

End of the module assessment is the final assessment, consisting of 60% weightage. The nature of final assessment is the report submission. The report can be a project, analysis, case study, research paper, etc.

We also integrate formative assessment which does not contribute to the final grade, rather helps in peer to peer learning and reflecting on the concepts used.
