Check if you qualifyThe B.Sc. in Data Science is a degree offered under the School of Computing and Information Sciences at C. K. Tedam University of Technology and Applied Sciences. It prepares you to work with data in a world that increasingly runs on it. Entry is less competitive than many other computing programmes, so it is worth considering if you have an interest in problem-solving and technology.
What data science programmes teach
Programmes of this kind usually combine statistics, mathematics, and computer science to help you collect, clean, analyse, and interpret large amounts of data. You will typically learn programming languages like Python or R, data visualisation, database management, and machine learning. The goal is to build practical skills for turning raw data into insight that organisations can act on.
How hard it is to get a place
This programme is less competitive to enter compared with similar computing programmes. That means you have a reasonable chance of gaining admission if you meet the published subject requirements. As with any degree, you should still aim for strong WASSCE results, and you can check your grades against the university's specific entry criteria.
What graduates do next
Graduates of data science programmes typically work in industries like banking, telecoms, health, retail, and technology. They often start in roles such as data analyst or junior data scientist, and may move into more senior analytical or managerial positions over time. The skills you build can also be applied in other fields like research, consulting, or software development.
