Testimonials
“I decided to enroll in the Master in Data Analytics because I wanted to expand the analytical knowledge gained during the bachelor’s in Economics at FEP. With this master, I learned advanced Data Analysis and Data Mining techniques that allowed me to extract useful information from Big Data to solve complex problems. I consider this master a great investment, as Data Science experts are in need in nearly every job sector and there is a shortage of people with the necessary skills to take those positions. Hence, if you have a passion for math, statistics and information systems, I kindly advise this master to be the next step in your academic path.”
