Master of Science Data Engineering

 

Data professions are the top of the list professions that will evolve the most in the coming years, according to the World Economic Forum’s « Future of Jobs Report 2020 » to a LinkedIn studyin November 2020.

Based on a pedagogical approach combining multi-disciplinary teaching, projects and feedback, aivancity’s MSc Data is a response to the opportunities and challenges raised by the massification of data in all sectors of economic activity and all areas of our modern society, leading to a significant shift in businesses and practices.

Faced with exponential growth in data volumes, companies of all sizes and in all sectors have no choice but to reflect on and implement solutions capable of addressing the challenges associated with this mega-data, which is described as “fuel” or “black gold” because its value fuels the digital economy. Moreover, the importance of data is not just for the economic world. Public organizations, scientific research, NGOs, communities and Smart Cities are also concerned.

aivancity’s MSc Data aims not only to master the entire cycle of data engineering (acquisition, architecture, storage, cleansing, sorting, structuring, securing and analysis), using the best technologies, but also to understand the issues at stake in organizations (decision-making support, understanding of business processes, etc.) as well as their legal, ethical and societal implications (respect for personal data, neutrality, bias, equity, diversity, transparency, etc.).

A 5.0 Campus for today's education and tomorrow's society

The Campus aivancity project in Cachan is the transformation of an existing building to give it a second lease of life, a second life. The project creates spaces of agility to adapt to a work environment, to pedagogical evolutions and ways of learning, but also to create one’ own path, one’s own thread of learning woven between spaces, between disciplines, between oneself and others. The development project led by Groupe Patriarche, aivancity’s partner in this ambitious and innovative operation, aims to increase interaction between the learners’ community, making it the pedagogical signature of the school, offering an experiential learning path made up of facilitating spaces, modularity continuity and learning personalization to create, within the path, one’s own path: the one that resembles us.
