After your graduation
Completion of the programme is rewarded with the title Master of Arts in Data-Driven Design. This degree opens the door to an exciting international career.
For the digital creative, data analysis is not a final goal, but rather a means to create innovative concepts that create value within a digital society.
This programme is developed in response to a strong demand from businesses themselves, as well as global developments. Public and private organizations are constantly confronted with the promises and perils of big data, machine learning and its implementation in technologies such as conversational agents, adaptable interfaces, and personalization. In recent years, the need for professionals with hands-on experience with these new technologies, as well as the ability to critically reflect on how these technologies affect individuals user and society, increased drastically.
Career prospects for data professionals
After completing the programme, you will be a “digital creative” in the true sense of the word – you will have acquired the skills you need in order to become a professional pioneer in the digital transformation process.
