BASF's Data Science Professional Development Program (PDP) provides highly motivated, mobile-minded current university students an opportunity to enhance their professional skills through a variety of diverse learning experiences. Participants will contribute to real-world rotational assignments within different domestic locations. They will explore career options and develop technical and professional decision-making skills, while fulfilling specific business needs. Participants also have the opportunity to assess their capabilities, skills, and interests and gain valuable exposure to BASF's culture, values, and decision-makers.
During the rotational program, you will learn how data science is applied to several domains by joining production, business, and research and development teams. This experience will allow you to gain exposure to different use-cases for data science and different problem-solving approaches. Additionally, you will build a global network with experts from many different fields and collaborate with individuals who have a diverse set of knowledge while generating data science solutions.
BASF encourages taking on new challenges while growing technical skills, and some tools you will work with and learn are:
The incumbent will be ‘hands-on’ and will have the opportunity to lead high value projects, to execute deliverables during all phases of an analytics project, starting from project definition to completion.
Deliverables will include the development of the appropriate machine learning and optimization models, collaborating with members from other functions to gather and validate the necessary data, and presenting the project results and benefits to key stake holders and internal clients. Also, communicating the ideas and solutions to a broad community of non-mathematicians and acting as a driving force in international and interdisciplinary project teams will be a key success-factor.
