Utilizing an innovative curriculum, experienced professors, real-world experience, and a network of like-minded driven individuals the Harbour.Space Data Science Master’s programme is pioneering this new frontier of human knowledge. Develop the analytical and programming skills needed to extract valuable knowledge out of data.

Year 1 | In the first year, students obtain the foundational theoretical knowledge they need to become data scientists. The programme builds the mathematical basis upon which students will develop understanding of programming, statistics, machine learning and data management during following years. The courses are mostly given in a form of lectures and takeaway coursework.

Modules:

Mathematical Foundations Of Computing

Foundations of Programming

Calculus

Practical Unix

Linear Algebra

Data Structures And Algorithms

Combinatorics And Graphs

Operating Systems

Databases

Year 2 | In the second year, students learn programming, statistics, and machine learning in addition to courses that will further establish the mathematical foundations they need in data science.

The second-year also contains courses that start covering tremendously useful data science tools as well as technical writing instruments. Most courses require practical coursework and a course project enabling students to get a feel for the challenges and approaches used in this field. The students will also begin developing software for the Capstone project.

By the end of this year, students will be able to write programmes, use primary data science tools and conduct data analysis and will be ready to study applied courses during the final year of the programme.

Irakli - Master in Digital Marketing

I did my masters in Digital Marketing at Harbour.Space University in Barcelona. Probably the best investment I've made in recent years. The value you'll get from this university is not necessarily by learning different tools and strategies but rather from the exposure to the industry and top people working there (which I think is what exactly Master's courses should be about). Also, you will enjoy sunny Barcelona, lots of festivals (party, design, tech) and conferences where the university can get you free access to (OFFF, Sonar, also discounts for other festivals) with a community of students from all over the world. After Harbour.Space I immediately got a job in my home city. Thanks to one of my teachers, I also got a couple of interviews at Google.

Mayra - Master in Interaction Design

There is an amazing environment of constant growth and sharing. Classmates are so talented and everyone is ready to help and give you real feedback. It is not a typical Interaction Design programme, is tough, teachers will push your limits but is worth it every time.

Pranav - Bachelor in Cyber Security

Harbour.Space truly fascinated me. Its innovative methods of teaching, unlike anything I'd ever seen before, pushed the boundaries of what I could learn from the field of cybersecurity. In a rapidly evolving cyber world, it's pointless to refer to books written 20 years ago. That isn't what Harbour-Space offers. Here I was able to grasp and put into practice the ever-expanding tools and skills required in the world of cybersecurity.
