MSc Business Modeling and Distributed Computing – a New Masters Program in English

Autor: Daniel Mican

Publicat: 10 Iunie 2015

Objectives: The BMDC masters program aims to prepare students for pursuing research-oriented careers, either in academic research projects or in industrial research. Students will be prepared to enroll in international Ph.D. programs, to work in international research projects, as well as in industry projects. Professors with international research experiences will share their knowledge and learned lessons.

Curriculum structure: The program offers three synchronized tracks and a research-oriented meta-track, each providing multiple subjects:
(a) the Business Modeling Track includes topics focused on the management and analysis of business processes within the context of an enterprise;
(b) the Distributed Computing track will develop skills for working with Cloud and High Performance environments;
(c) the Web content and analysis track will focus on state-of-the-art methods emerging in paradigms such as Data Science, Big Data and Natural Language Processing;
(d) The meta-track aims to develop researcher skills – it covers research methodologies, best practices for communication of scientific results, as well as simulated experience with research projects development.
The students will study all tracks, and will elect one of the three main tracks as a focus of their final semester and dissertation.



Available infrastructure: The students will have the chance to work with the highest performance supercomputer in a Romanian university, for topics that require exceptional computing capabilities (high performance computing, distributed systems, Big Data analysis) - a cluster with 68 nodes, delivering more than 1300 cores on Intel Xeon processors, including GPU and IntelPhi accelerators.
