The massive technological disruptions that have taken place in the past few decades have been stimulated by the advances in computational technologies. This has led to an exponential growth in data availability paralleled with rapid advances in computational speed. The combination of the two has prompted the rise of a new methodology: data science which is being increasingly utilised to advance conventional fields of knowledge such as the sciences, business, social sciences, engineering etc. While traditional data analysis methods continue to be relevant, new methodologies have emerged to analyse, understand, and act on the knowledge gleaned from the data. No area of human affairs has been immune from this data revolution. Given its importance, conventional disciplines require a new type of researcher who is proficient in the use of latest methodoslogies of data analysis to advance not only the existing boundaries of current knowledge but also to create new knowledge.
