About Us | Who we are and what we do

The Department of Data Science and Data Analytics Engineering was established at Loyola in 2016-17 as an answer to the ever rising need for analytical skills. Loyola Academy is the first college in twin cities to have introduced such a course which is a combination of Statistics and Computer Science. Today we experience a true deluge of data which shapes our lives, ranging from large global issues such as climate change to the smallest local problems. Data Science relevant subjects such as Python, R Programming and Big Data using Hadoop play a vital role in shaping students’ as Data Scientists in these fields.
