The main topic of the DWS M.Sc. Programme is the specialization in Data and Web Science. The efficient and effective data management is a critical issue given the exponential data growth and the rapid evolution of Web technologies which pose new challenges. These challenges arise at all levels of the Information Technology Stage in terms of infrastructure, management, access, and exploitation of information for knowledge mining that will be provided in a direct way and will open new possibilities for the development of science and innovation. The purpose of the DWS M.Sc. Programme is the training of postgraduate students in Data Science and the World Wide Web so that they are either able to work directly in the industry in relevant jobs, or to undertake research and PhD theses. We are aiming for a flexible curriculum that includes both basic and advanced topics and offers powerful resources in the areas of Data Science and Web Science.
