New DSPS Curriculum for 2023-24 Entry

DSPS Programme was the first undergraduate programme in Hong Kong and one of the few in the world to integrate data science with policy studies. DSPS not only offers a comprehensive and balanced curriculum on fundamental aspects of data, statistical and machine learning knowledge, policy design and analytics techniques, it also equips students with hands-on experience with data science software and visualization tools. To further enhance interdisciplinarity of the Programme, a new DSPS curriculum is to be launched in 2023-24.

Under the new DSPS curriculum, students are allowed greater flexibility in designing their own specialization based on the interdisciplinary elective courses taken and also their experiences gained in capstone project and internship. At the same time, more up-to-date DSPS Courses are to be offered from 2023-24 in response to the diverse development in the related subject areas.
