Data engineering

English-taught programme

For candidates from countries outside the EU/EFTA/OECD, or from countries not covered by agreements on the mutual recognition of education, the university conducts entrance examinations to verify the knowledge required to undertake studies in a given field, level, and profile.

The Institute of Physics offers education in the field of Data engineering. The main goal of this study is education of specialist having necessary basic knowledge as well as practical skills and experience in data collection, exploration, analysis and interpretation, using modern IT tools. This study has interdisciplinary character with respect of applications and it is based on fundamentals of mathematics, physics, statistics and computer science. Educating an alumnus possessing: knowledge and abilities in data engineering, based on newest technologies and software tools; ability of a practical use of basic software platforms and computer codes devoted to data analysis, deep learning, artificial intelligence; ability of basic programming in Python and the use of basic libraries of dedicated software; knowledge in the general problematics of the studied fields.

The prime goal is the education of specialists which will have practical skill in processing of the data with computer tools involving the newest information technologies (Big Data, Data Mining, artificial intelligence, machine learning).

The graduates of Data Engineering will possess:

- knowledge and abilities in data engineering, based on newest technologies and software tools,

- ability of a practical use of basic software platforms and computer codes devoted to data analysis, deep learning, artificial intelligence,

- ability of basic programming in Python and the use of basic libraries of dedicated software,

- knowledge in the general problematic of the studied fields,

- ability of practical applications of the acquired knowledge and skills in professional career,

- ability of solving professional problems, ability of team work,

- ability of using the professional literature and computer data bases,

- knowledge of English at B2 level, acquaintance with the special vocabulary in data engineering.

Data engineering graduates will have opportunities to find employment in institutions and companies specializing in data acquisition and processing or data protection (such as statistics/ accounting offices, various businesses, universities, research laboratories, software development companies), at positions requiring fluent practical skills in data analysis.

The received degree entitles to apply for admission to second-degree studies in the given or related field of science and any higher-education institution, as well as to enlist into postgraduate courses. The basic offer for continuation at UJK for Data Engineering graduates are the second-degree studies in mathematics (Data Analysis) and physics (Medical Physics, Nanotechnologies).
