The Data Engineer expert is one of the most important job in the Big Data Industry

Ce programme Applied MSc 1 de 6 mois de cours et de 6 mois de stage programme, avec ses deux entrées en automne et au printemps, est conçu pour ouvrir votre carrière à ces emplois d’ingénieur Big Data que toutes les industries recherchent.

3IA label

Once your studies and professional experience are completed, your achievements will be assessed by our Graduation Committee. If successful, you will be able to obtain the degree “Expert en Sciences des Données” (Experts in Data Science). DSTI is proud of its Applied MSc in Data Analytics, Applied MSc in Data Engineering for AI and Applied MSc in Data Science & AI to have been fully accredited at Master’s level by the French Government via the RNCP mechanism. The RNCP “Répertoire National des Certifications Professionnelles” is a government recognition mechanism dedicated to scrutinising programmes’ suitability for the work market. A RNCP title rewards specific needs in terms of skills and knowledge transfer for immediate employability, which is the heart of DSTI philosophy.

Les experts en ingénierie des données sont rares et plus demandés que les data scientists.


Infographics

Data is the energy that powers the digital transformation. The developers consume it in their applications. Data Analysts search, query and share it. Data Scientists feed their algorithms with it. Data Engineers are responsible for setting up the value chain that includes the collection, cleaning, enrichment and provision of data. Some of the Data Engineers’ missions are to manage scalability, ensure data security and integrity, be fault-tolerant, manipulate batch or streaming data, validate schemas, publish APIs, select formats, models and databases appropriated to their exhibitions. From this work, flow the trust and success of those who consume and exploit the data.

And while the Harvard Business Review may have declared: Data Scientist: The Sexiest Job of the 21st Century, it is the data engineering team that allows them to shine.​

Types of evaluation

In order to obtain their degree, students must validate all the assessments required throughout the programme.

The evaluation procedures are as following:

Engineering Projects/Applied Projects

All students will be assigned engineering projects included in the majority of the modules. Students will conduct projects throughout the year until their classes finish and they go to their work placement . These Engineering Projects aim to apply all the knowledge and skills acquired in the different classes and to use DSTI professors as mentors and coaches throughout the year. Some of these projects may come from applied research work done by our Professors affiliated to a research lab.

Resources and tools available for students

Mandatory full validation

Admission Criteria

DSTI accepts the two international & standardised aptitute exams, GMAT & GRE, as subsitutes for our own entry exam.

Our expectations are:

  • GMAT: a minimum global score of 650 and ideally greater or equal to 700.
  • GRE: a minimum global score of 310 and ideally greater or equal to 320.

Prerequisites

IT MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS

DSTI students are required to have a Windows PC (Apple Macs are not an option) laptop with the following minimum specifications:

1.CPU: Intel Core i5 minimum (or AMD equivalent)

2.RAM: 8GB minimum, 16GB strongly recommended

3.Storage: 512GB minimum, 1TB strongly recommended. SSD is best, but expensive. A good and common alternative is a dual-drive system with 128GB/256GB SSD + 512 or 1TB magnetic. If magnetic only, it has to be a 7200rpm minimum, 5400rpm are too slow.

4.Graphic Card (GPU): an NVIDA GPU is a plus, but it’s not a mandatory requirement.

5.Operating System: any edition of Microsoft Windows, as DSTI will provide a Windows 10 Professional licence key once the classes are starting

6.Do not pay for MS Office 365, DSTI will also provide a licence once the classes are starting.

Without complying to these requirements, DSTI will not be able to provide its IT support.

Ability in English required

All classes are conducted exclusively in English, therefore a good level of proficiency in this language is required (equivalent to English level C1 on the European scale “CEFR”).

It is not necessary to include proof of language proficiency with your application. However, your level of English will be assessed at the admission interview to ensure that you are able to understand and follow the desired programmes.
