Program Description

The Bachelor of Science in Data Science for Responsible Business is a four-year program jointly offered by emlyon business school and École Centrale de Lyon. Entirely taught in English, this program integrates data science and artificial intelligence (AI) with a strong emphasis on responsible business practices. It aims to equip students with the skills to harness emerging technologies for sustainable development.

Program Structure:

  • Years 1 and 2: Students build a solid foundation in mathematics, computer science, data science, AI technologies, and corporate social responsibility (CSR). This phase includes two 3-month internships, totaling six months of professional experience.
  • Years 3 and 4: The curriculum becomes project-oriented, allowing students to choose from three specialized tracks:
    • Data Science Track: Collaborate with a company on a comprehensive data science project, including a 3-month summer internship, culminating in delivering a tailored solution to the partner organization.
    • Research Track: Engage in a research project within a partnered laboratory, guided by experienced researchers, and undertake a 3-month summer internship in the lab.
    • Entrepreneurship Track: Develop and launch a startup idea with support from the incubators of emlyon business school and École Centrale de Lyon, dedicating the summer internship to full-time development of the business venture.

Throughout the program, students benefit from the combined expertise of both institutions, access to cutting-edge research facilities, and a curriculum designed to meet the evolving needs of responsible business in the era of AI and data science.
