Introduction
Data Science and Big Data Technology is a newly emerging interdisciplinary of Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Mathematics and Statistics. The courses are mainly involved with how to use Computer Technology, Artificial Intelligence methods and Statistics theory to solve Big Data intelligence analysis, processing and decision-making problems in industrial applications. The objective of the major is to cultivate application-oriented and international senior data talents who have international vision, communication ability, and master basic theory of Data Science, Big Data Technology and basic skills of Artificial Intelligence, can be engaged in the management, analysis, research and development in relevant departments of Big Data Industry.
Related English-taught Master Program
Supported by the 4 master's degree programs in Mathematics Physics, Applied Statistics, Simulation Calculation and Statistics, we have established research institutes for “Data Science and Artificial Intelligence” laboratory, focusing on areas such as “Machine Learning and Big Data Processing”, “Big Data Processing and Statistical Analysis”, “Big Data Analysis and Applications” and “Big Data Intelligent Processing.
Enrollment Advantage
At present, less than 10% of the total colleges and universities with majors and directions related to big data have been opened. The colleges and universities specialized in training international big data professionals are still blank. It is difficult to meet the needs of society in a short period, and the needs of international big data talents are huge.
This program is supported by the 4 master's degree programs. Students can continue to study for a master's degree in a relevant major after completing this program. There is 1 school running an experimental centre, 7 research institutes, 1 research centre, and 1 innovation base in the school.
Students are assigned their personal mentors to guide them in course selection, suggest career paths, provide additional resources and laboratory access, supervise after-class hands-on projects and competitions, to arrange on-campus part-time positions and industry internship opportunities. Our graduates have achieved excellent GPA performance and numerous competition awards, scholarships and honours.

Career Opportunities
With the rapid development of AI technology, big data technical talents have a wide range of needs worldwide. From the world's top 500 companies such as BAT to small startups, they all need data talent.
After four years of study in Data Science and Big Data Technology, Most students can start their career in the following three directions:
- Big data development direction; the occupations involved are big data engineer, big data maintenance engineer, big data R & D engineer, big data architect, etc .;
- Data mining, data analysis, and machine learning; the occupations involved are big data analysts, big data senior engineers, big data analyst experts, big data miners, big data algorithm engineers, etc .;
- Big data operation and maintenance and cloud computing direction; corresponding positions: big data operation and maintenance engineer;
The other graduates continue to pursue postgraduate studies, in universities around China and overseas e.g. in Canada. Their excellent academic performance and extracurricular activity give them an overwhelming advantage in scholarship applications. Many graduates proceed to pursue master’s degrees at our own school with familiar supervisors.
