Efficient management of data and knowledge are key factors not only to the success of almost any enterprise, but also to the successful handling of todays vast amounts of science related data: with the transition to the information age and the knowledge economy, data has become both increasingly central and critical to all activities.

Efficient management of data and knowledge are key factors not only to the success of almost any enterprise, but also to the successful handling of todays vast amounts of science related data: with the transition to the information age and the knowledge economy, data has become both increasingly central and critical to all activities. For example, imagine the huge amounts of genomic or patient data available electronically, and how the quality of their management can affect society. <br/><br/>The Data and Knowledge Management pathway allows students to take specialist themes concerned with methods and technologies for the adequate management of data and knowledge. The Managing Data theme focuses on the design, maintenance, and query processing of both structured and unstructured databases. The Learning from Data theme covers principles, algorithms, and technologies underlying machine learning, probabilistic modelling, and optimisation, while exposing students to relevant applications. The Advanced Web Technologies theme provides students with a deep understanding of the technologies that are being used to support the continuing evolution of the Web, including Semantic Web technologies.
