At aivancity, after completing your professional (hbo) bachelor’s programme, you can continue on to a master's degree in Artificial Intelligence &amp; Data Science or Data Engineering &amp; Cloud Computing.

**Vwo diploma and fast track**   
With a VWO diploma, you can complete the professional bachelor’s programme in three years. You will then move directly into the second year of the master's programme at aivancity, which you will complete in one year. This means you will obtain both degrees in four years.

**Havo or mbo-4**  
You will complete the regular four-year bachelor’s programme and then spend one year studying for a master's degree at aivancity. In total, you will obtain your bachelor's degree and a Master of Science degree in five years.

###   
**Obtain your professional bachelor’s** ***and*** **a master’s degree** **in 5 or 6 years via JADS** 

After completing your bachelor's degree, you will continue on to the two-year MSc Data Science in Business &amp; Entrepreneurship programme at JADS. During your studies at BUas, you will already take courses from JADS, so attending a pre-master's track is not necessary.

**Vwo diploma and fast track**   
After completing your bachelor’s degree in three years, you can continue on to the two-year master's programme at JADS. This allows you to obtain your professional bachelor’s degree *and* a Master of Science degree in five years.

**Havo or mbo-4**  
You will complete the four-year bachelor’s programme and then spend two year studying for a master's degree at JADS. In total, it will take you six years to obtain both degrees.

Both pathways combine practical professional knowledge with academic depth. You will develop strong data science skills and cultivate an entrepreneurial mindset – an excellent preparation for a career in the international tech world.
