La Salle-URL is launching new masters to meet specific market needs. The most important additions to our range of programs focus on Big Data and Software Architecture. Firstly, we have the launch of the new Master of Science in Data Science. The huge amount of data generated in today’s world has led to the creation of a new professional profile to manage the huge data created by companies. The “Data Scientist” is currently one of the most highly-sought after profiles. But why do we need Data Science experts in companies? Their main tasks are to collect, analyse, filter, structure, visualize and validate all the data generated. These actions bring great value to the company in many ways, not only financially.
Another program from this area is the Master in Big Data, which specializes in the methods used to store and efficiently process huge amounts of data. This master not only trains professionals in the technological aspects of managing big data, but it also teaches them how to analyse it and how to design scalable infrastructures for data centres to extract, store and analyse applications.
The launch of the Master in Software Development and Architecture is an attractive option for professionals in the computer science sector. If you want to be a good IT project developer, you need to be more than just good at programming. This is why companies are currently looking for “software architects”: professionals who are experts in all the phases of the product development cycle and are able to determine a software structure which is both reliable and efficient. This profile is also able to choose the technology which best adapts to current and future company projects. These professionals will lead technical projects which include the optimal design of solutions, techniques and development methods, validation tools and quality standards. We refer to a profile that is in great demand, given that 31% of emerging companies expect to include software architecture and development teams in their organisational structure, and according to Forbes, this is one of the ten highest paid tech jobs in the world.

In addition to these two new programs, February 2018 will see the launch of two new business programs, namely the Executive Program in Digital Transformation and the Executive Program in Project Management.
