The «Big Data and Data Science» curriculum is both a Master level program for the French students at Mines Nancy, and a track for foreign exchange students. While the courses are given in English for convenience, students are entirely integrated with French students during sessions and have the opportunity to fully experience French way of life and studies.

Embrace the world of data!

The digital transformation of the world economy provides us with tremendous amounts of data. The capacity to leverage these data and transform them into information is offering a wide range of opportunities for new markets, services and improved decision making.

Cutting edge research in Applied Mathematics (Statistics and Optimization) and Computer Science (Machine Learning, Knowledge Mining, High Performance Computing) has been competing with corporate stakeholders to develop tools and
techniques for the management of these data troves.

The aim of this program is to confront these techniques and their applications, as well as their more fundamental underlying theories to modern issues of data science.

At the end of the year, the students will be able to work in many areas as data scientists endorsed by one of the most prestigious French Graduate Schools Of Science, Engineering and Management.
