The Ph.D. program in Data Analytics and Decision Sciences (DADS) trains highly qualified senior data scientists capable of conducting research at universities, (inter)national research centers, tech and financial firms, consultancies, regulatory bodies, and other public or private organizations. The program results from cooperation among three departments—DEIB, DIG, and DMAT—and the Health Data Science (HDS) Center at Human Technopole. It offers students a highly interdisciplinary environment with strong ties to international research centers and companies. Ph.D. candidates develop advanced skills in methods for analyzing and integrating large, heterogeneous datasets, applying them in healthcare, industry, sustainable mobility, and social innovation. International collaborations and research visits enrich a training path that leads to careers in academia, research, and data-driven organizations.
