Privacy

The Business Data Science course program is governed by the Amsterdam-Rotterdam Consortium for Graduate Education (ARC). ARC is the consortium of the Schools of Economics and Business of Erasmus University Rotterdam (EUR), University of Amsterdam (UvA) and Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (VU), providing and supervising the graduate and PhD education of the schools. Under the ARC umbrella are currently 2 programs: Business Data Science and the Tinbergen Institute research master in economics. ARC is not a legal entity but is represented by the Erasmus University Rotterdam (host university). ARC is providing back office services to the BDS program.
