Laureate Education, Inc.announced today a new collaboration with IBM to design a state-of-the-art data science curriculum that would be available for its more than one million students at its nearly 70 institutions globally.
This new, jointly developed curriculum will be exclusively offered to students attending Laureate institutions, and will equip students with specific skills to prepare them for jobs including business analysts, data scientists, project managers, and software engineers.
The curriculum will teach students about contemporary advances in emerging fields and expose students to innovations like artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning. Also included in the curriculum, which will launch at Laureate this August, are virtual lab-based, experiential learning experiences, and real-world, international applications to connect abstract concepts with concrete examples.
