Our campus continues to grow with academic offerings related to engineering and communication. A few weeks ago, a new classroom area, a flex space, and completely remodeled areas were inaugurated to accommodate more students. This building growth is reflected in the opening of new undergraduate programs linked to new disciplines: a Bachelor's degree in Data Science and a Bachelor's degree in Marketing with a focus on Communication and Design. Both will last four years and will begin offering courses in March 2024.
The Faculty of Engineering's new program, a Bachelor of Data Science, aims to produce graduates with a solid scientific foundation in computing, statistics, and mathematics, capable of addressing challenges in both the productive and academic sectors in various areas that require data modeling and management.
With this cutting-edge program, our school addresses the growing demand from public and private institutions for individuals with a strong quantitative background, solid programming skills, critical thinking, a scientific attitude, abstract thinking, and logical dexterity.
The graduate profile of the UA's Bachelor's Degree in Data Science is that of a graduate with a solid foundation in mathematics, statistics, and programming, with a focus on data analysis and interpretation.
Graduates of this program will have strong problem-solving skills and will be able to effectively communicate their findings to non-technical audiences. They will be able to work independently and as part of a team, and will be comfortable with a wide variety of data analysis tools and techniques. In a business context, data scientists use their skills to analyze data and make recommendations that can improve organizational results. They can work with data sets of all sizes and use their skills to find trends and patterns. Data scientists will also be able to develop new machine learning algorithms or artificial intelligence models to solve business problems.
The horizon for our Headquarters is full of challenging projects.
