About us

DSTI was founded to respond to the needs and challenges of the 4th industrial revolution, which is the creation of value through the control, exploitation and operationalisation of the huge data reservoirs of companies. Among these challenges, that of training engineers and analysts to become high-level operayional specialists on the four pillars of skills of the field: advanced computing to host "Big Data" in IS, applied mathematics to master predictive algorithms , business & management for the application of the two previous ones as well as ethics and the law, in order to avoid legal and moral errors of these applications.

DSTI offers three programmes:

• The Applied MSc in Data Analytics
• The Applied MSc in Data Engineering for AI
• The Applied MSc in Data Science & AI

The content is driven by a Scientific Advisory Board, composed of recognised and respected professional figures as well as academics with industrial partnerships experience. In fact, we commit ourselves to follow the industrial, and the job market needs to the letter, so our programs will evolve on a yearly basis. Therefore, you will be invited to come back, in the presence or via e-learning, to keep your skills up-to-date.
