Study Advice for Data Science and Analytics (DSA) Students

  • Students are strongly advised to follow the sample study plan listed in the programme document as closely as possible.  In particular, students should complete:
    • DSA1101 by Year 1, Semester 2;
    • DSA2101 by Year 2, Semester 2; and
    • DSA3101 by Year 3, Semester 2.

Graduation may be delayed if the required courses are not completed on schedule.  If you are unable to do so, you must complete any outstanding courses by Semester 1 of the following academic year.

  • When making your study plans, please check that you have met the prerequisites of courses you intend to read as the department generally does not grant prerequisite waivers.
  • For students intending to take the Undergraduate Professional Internship Programme (UPIP) to fulfil the DSA requirements, please note that the department will approve enrolment in only one of the following courses to be read concurrently with UPIP: 
    • DSA3101or
