High Quality Program in Computer Science F7480101

1.1.Program introduction 

High-quality training program (CLC) in Computer Science (KHMT) prepares Computer Science engineers with theoretical knowledge and computational techniques as the foundation for designing and applying computer systems. This is the most important industry in the fields related to Information Technology (IT). Students not only learn the knowledge of mathematics, statistics and programming but also are equipped with knowledge of software technology and modern data analysis tools to become data scientists. Data Scientist - is the most attractive profession in the 21st century voted by Harvard Business Review.

Indeed, most businesses today collect or create large blocks of data. Characteristics of this data are very large, varied, complex and rapidly changing structures. In addition to learning basic and intensive knowledge to perform the work of a software engineer, CLC Engineer will be equipped with methods and techniques to exploit information and knowledge from the Data sources such as data of financial institutions, business data, social network data, biological data, environmental data, ..., to help organizations and enterprises exploit the maximum of information resources information hidden behind data, thereby determining opportunities and challenges in production and business activities as well as determining trends to help organizations and businesses develop sustainably.
