Applied Mathematics/Data Science
Would you like to help organisations to solve their hardest problems? Do you like to puzzle with data and look for patterns? Then the Data Science track of Applied Mathematics is the place for you!
This programme prepares you to become a Data Scientist with a focus on applications in Logistics and Engineering. You could work for example on the most efficient route for a delivery service of a (web)shop or supermarket, a dashboard for a theme park with expected waiting times, a prediction of the number of returns for a clothing brand or a model to plan replacement of airplane parts to avoid problems while flying.
Artificial Intelligence is a common theme within the whole programme. It is a combination of mathematics, statistics and logic that helps to take quick, smart and personalised decisions. Voice recognition, movie suggestions on Netflix and self-driving cars are examples of technical developments with artificial intelligence.

Anglų kalbos žinias gali patvirtinti vienu iš šių būdų:
- turėti anglų kalbos pažymį Brandos atestate ir išlaikyti Anglų kalbos valstybinį egzaminą (egzamino rezultatas nėra svarbus, svarbiausia, kad jį išlaikytum)*
arba
- išlaikyti IELTS arba TOEFL testą.
*Jeigu nori pasitikrinti ar tavo anglų kalbos žinios yra pakankamos studijuoti Nyderlandų aukštosiose – suteikiame galimybę laikyti Oxford anglų kalbos testą. Nors anglų kalbos testas nėra reikalaujamas, patartina žinoti savo galimybes ir kalbos lygį.
