MSc in Data Mining and Knowledge Management at UEL
Knowledge is currently considered amongst the most valuable assets of any organization. As organizations evolve and mature in the way they manage information, they seek ways of improving the utilization and reuse of existing knowledge as well as the creation of new knowledge that would provide an edge over their competitors. Data Mining and its associated technologies, amongst other Knowledge Management tools and methodologies, is at the forefront of this corporate battle for seeking and creating knowledge. The need for specialists in those fields and the requirements for continuous training and development are constant. The MSc Data Mining and Knowledge Management at UEL is a unique programme that addresses the need for specialization and continuous development in the above areas.

The programme is offered in day full-time mode and part-time mode, commencing September or February. The full time mode consists of two 15-week semesters plus a 14-week dissertation project. The part time mode consists of four 15-week semesters plus a 28-week dissertation project.
