Key Learning Outcomes

Digitalization is changing society and organizations rapidly. As a result, the needs of working life are also changing. The importance of data is constantly growing and artificial intelligence is increasingly being used in various applications. These changes brought about by digitalization require experts in various fields to increase their knowledge of the data and identify the potential of artificial intelligence, without forgetting the ethical aspects involved.

The Master’s Degree Programme in Data Expertise and Artificial Intelligence programs will equip you with the ability to independently act as an expert and developer in demanding tasks that require data and utilize artificial intelligence or are intended to be utilized in the future. During the training, you will learn to recognize the different data needs of your specialist area and understand the potential of utilizing data in your expertice area. You will also learn how to pre-process, analyze and visualize data in practice.

During the training you will familiarize yourself with the concepts and methods of artificial intelligence and you will also apply the methods and applications of artificial intelligence in practice. Participating students come from a variety of educational backgrounds (including engineers, nurses, and tradenomes), which gives you an excellent opportunity to network and understand the concepts of experts in different disciplines and ways to solve problems. The aim is for students to share knowledge and skills with each other. Training will equip you to deepen your professional skills and provide you with methods and tools to continue developing your skills beyond training.

Occupational Profiles of Graduates with Examples

Companies and organizations are in dire need of experts who have not only their own substantive knowledge but also data and artificial intelligence expertise. They can work as experts in a variety of project, design and development tasks.
Job titles can include a senior engineer, a data expert, an application specialist, a project manager, a system manager, a special engineer, or a specialist.
