On November 6th a visitation panel will visit Wageningen University and evaluate the proposition for a new bachelor programme in data science. The panel will focus on evaluating the quality of the programme and how the double track (Dutch and English) will be realized. During that day the panel will discuss the details of the programme with representatives of teachers, programme management team, examination committee and representatives of the professional field. The working group of which WDCC is part of, is extremely busy with the preparations.
Also, the name of the programme has been decided: Bachelor Data Science for Global Challenges. This name conveys the strategy of WUR to employ state of the art digital technologies in the context of WUR domains of interest. The new bachelor has also its own website where interested students may read more about the programme and follow the updates.
