The PDEng Data Science is a joint initiative of Eindhoven University of Technology, Tilburg University, and the Data Science Centre Eindhoven. Together they founded The Jheronimus Academy of Data Science (JADS). The academy is a thriving data science community, in which postgraduate education, innovation, entrepreneurial activities, lifelong learning, and scientific research are integrated.?

The Data Science?programme offered by?Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e)?is concerned with the problem of finding patterns and creating value from vast streams of data in the context of a data domain.?The main themes of the program are:

• Collect, explore, analyze, interpret, and present huge data sets

• Approach data and domain problems from multiple perspective

• Create value for organizations by designing novel data driven solutions

The program combines statistics, computer science, mathematics, and design theory with the business acumen to explore data sets, gather insights, visualize results, and communicate meaningful findings to stakeholders taking into consideration underlying ethical and legal aspects.

Careers

Leading companies, markets, and businesses in many fields are hiring big data infrastructure professionals at doctorate level to help them store, explore, process, access, visualize the terabytes of data that they collect daily. While the volume of data produced and stored grows exponentially, there is a severe shortage of talent to design, maintain, and optimize data infrastructure and data pipelines and to turn complex and unstructured data into valuable business insights. More than 90% of the foreign graduates from the PDEng program Data Science find a first job in The Netherlands.
