Erasmus Mundus Master in Data Mining and Knowledge Management (DMKM)
The aim of the Erasmus Mundus master’s degree in Data Mining and Knowledge Management is to train engineers and researchers to extract latent, potentially useful information from stored data, display it to the final user in a comprehensible manner and incorporate it into an intelligent decision-making system. Beginning with basic training, students can choose two specialisations from among the following six: E-Science; Data Mining in the Social Sciences; Knowledge and Decision Making; Statistical Modelling and Data Mining; the Semantic Web; and Relational Data Mining.
