“What we’re hearing from our partners in industry is that targeted training in key areas can greatly increase the available talent pool in this fast-moving sector.”
Lisa Strug Director, Data Sciences Institute
"What I like about the Data Sciences Institute is that they don’t only train students in terms of technical aspects like programming and machine learning, but also they look for so-called soft skills, and they try to improve that in the students. I also like that the students have backgrounds in different areas, including healthcare."
Javier DiazHead of data science at Phenomic AI Inc.
"If you are aspiring to be a really successful data scientist, I think previous experience is very important because you bring all those perspectives and you are able to look at problems from different angles. And with the technical knowledge that they’ve acquired through [the DSI], I think those candidates can definitely excel, compared to a lot of other conventional computer science programs."
