Career opportunities
The master degree graduate in Data Science will be able to cover high-profile technical and/or managerial roles in areas that require advanced and appropriate knowledge and skills to identify, collect, manage, analyze, and interpret large collections of data (big data), supporting innovative business development, understanding of social phenomena, new data-driven methodologies of scientific inquiry, and design and implementation of data products, i.e., tangible results based on descriptive, predictive, or prescriptive analytics for complex systems.
Specifically, master graduates can fill the roles of data scientist (or data analyst), data specialist, and data manager. They may also cover the roles of heads of departments for the development and management of information technology methodologies to support decision-making processes, or they may be technical figures, in teams with specialists, who deal with the analysis and processing of physical, chemical, biological, health-related, and more generally scientific-technological data.
