About this minor
In this minor, students from other study programmes than Data Science & Artificial lntelligence (DS&AI) collaborate with DS&AI students to find solutions to real-life problems by using data and artificial intelligence applications.
DS&AI students act as the technological experts, and you, together with your fellow students, act as the domain experts. Together you will analyse the problem, assess solutions used in the past, describe data needed to contribute to the solution, develop the solution, and present the outcomes to the client.
As a participant, you will:
- Engage in Cross-Disciplinary Collaboration: Unite with DS&AI technologists to tackle real-world industry challenges through the lens of your domain expertise.
- Develop as a Domain Translator: Learn the essential skill of articulating complex industry problems into data-centric language that AI experts can navigate upon and innovate in.
- Innovate with Impact: Generate cutting-edge solutions by synthesising past approaches, current data insights, and AI applications to elevate your field.
- Deliver Transformational Solutions: Craft and present revolutionary, data-driven outcomes to industry clients, steering your sector toward a smarter, more efficient future.
After this minor
Bridging the gap between data scientists and engineers, you will be able to initiate data-driven solutions to organisational challenges and lead data and AI implementation projects in business and society.
