This is the era of big data and artificial
intelligence. Data science represents
a cutting-edge discipline which applies
scientific methods, mathematics,
algorithms and artificial intelligence to
extract and visualise intelligent insights
from huge volumes of data.
In the fast-progressing world of the Information
Age these insights, whether delivered via
autonomous integrated systems or in traditional
reports, have the potential to fuel innovation and
transform decision making. Data scientists deal
with the challenges of big data – its interpretation,
management and use – in fields as diverse as
marketing, information systems, engineering,
finance, arts, humanities, science and medicine.
Monash brings an enormous breadth of expertise
