Data Science for Fundamental Sciences

Data Science for Fundamental Sciences

Contact Person:Prof. Giuseppe Longo - Dept of Physics, Monte Sant'Angelo Campus, room 1M35.

Choose your path and learn how to build new artificial intelligence algorithms for extracting new knowledge from big data and data streams, in the field of pure and applied science. We remind you that the second year must adhere to the following structure:

Course CFU Notes
Curricular course n. I  12 Specific to the selected curriculum
Curricular course n. II 6 Specific to the selected curriculum
1-st Free Choice Course 6 Only constraint: the course must be coherent with the formative trajectory of the student (read below)
2-nd Free Choice Course 6 Only constraint: the course must be coherent with the formative trajectory of the student (read below)
Internship-Stage or Project 8 Second semester 
Other activities 6 Any Time
Thesis and Final Exam 16 Second Semester
Total CFU - First Year   60  

 

Formative Paths

When enrolling for the second year you must choose among three formative paths:

Path 1: Mathematical Methodologies
Path 2: Data science for hard sciences
Path 3: Data Science for Life Sciences

Remember, however, that the free choice exams can be selected amongst the whole course catalogue of the Polytechnic and Fundamental Sciences School, as long as they are coherent with the selected formative path. Have a look to the complete list of recommended free choice exams for the curricula in Fundamental Sciences and in Information Technologies.
