Econometrics and Data Science

In Econometrics and Data Science (EDS) you will learn the core methods of econometrics, computer science, and statistics and you'll learn about the ethical aspects of data science.

During the first year you will primarily focus on the foundations of mathematics, programming, probability theory and statistics, combined with economics and finance.

In the second year you will deepen your knowledge of each of the three areas of EDS: econometrics, computer science, and statistics.

In the first semester of the third year, you will have complete freedom of choice (called the minor). You can opt for a minor within or outside the faculty, an internship, or a period abroad. In the second semester, you will deepen your knowledge by choosing specialized courses in Econometrics, Machine Learning, or contemporaneous Data Science fields.

On top of this, excellent and ambitious students are also given the option to follow an additional Honours programme.
