1, Peking University

Big data is a new major, and 20 16 first appeared in China. At that time, there were only three universities with this major, including Peking University.

2. university of international business and economics

There is also university of international business and economics, which opened a big data major in the same batch as Peking University. Many people don't know that this school is a 2 1 1 engineering university, so this big data major should be done well.

3. Central South University

This school is the best university in Hunan, belonging to 2 1 1 and 985 engineering school. It is the first batch of universities to offer big data and majors. In some online rankings, the school's big data major ranks first in the country.

4. China Renmin University

The National People's Congress (NPC) belongs to the second batch of universities offering big data majors, and the specific starting time is 20 17. Although this major of the National People's Congress has only been established for one or two years, its strength should be very strong, because the school's statistics discipline is in a leading position in China.

Second, the big data major:

It is an interdisciplinary subject: statistics, mathematics and computer are the three supporting disciplines; Biology, medicine, environmental science, economics, sociology and management are applied and expanded disciplines.

In addition, you need to learn data acquisition, analysis and processing software, mathematical modeling software and computer programming language.

Take China Renmin University as an example:

Basic courses (38 credits): mathematical analysis, advanced algebra, introduction to general physical mathematics and information science, data structure, introduction to data science, introduction to programming and programming practice.

Compulsory courses (37 credits): discrete mathematics, probability statistics, algorithm analysis and design, data computing intelligence, introduction to database system, computer system foundation, parallel architecture and programming, unstructured big data analysis.

Elective courses: introduction to data science algorithm, special topics of data science, data science practice, practical development technology of Internet, sampling technology, statistical learning, regression analysis and stochastic process.

Extended data:

Major courses of big data major

C programming, data structure, database principle and application, computer operating system, computer network, Java programming, Python programming, big data algorithm, artificial intelligence, applied statistics (statistics), big data machine learning, data modeling, big data platform core technology, big data analysis and processing, big data management, big data practice and other courses.

Data (big data)

Refers to data sets that cannot be captured, managed and processed by conventional software tools within a certain period of time. It is a massive, high-growth and diversified information asset, which needs a new processing mode to have stronger decision-making, insight and discovery, and process optimization ability.
