Part-time employment
The Master of Artificial Intelligence & Data Science follows a unique time model that permits students to work part-time while pursuing a full-time Master’s degree. We call this the three-day model. Students typically attend classes three days a week, on two weekdays and on Saturdays. This leaves three working days for self-study, language courses or part-time employment. Some lectures, exams or excursions are organised as block week events.
