What you'll study
In the first semester you will learn the core fundamentals of data analytics, machine learning and the statistics of data analysis, together with some of the relevant technology. You will then choose from module options which explore financial, business and scientific applications; such as in trading and risk systems, optimisation of business processes, and relationships across complex systems.
You may choose to focus your studies in one of three areas: focusing on the statistical foundations, financial or scientific applications of data science.
Over the summer you will work on a research project which will allow you to develop strong applied data science research skills.
You do not need to be a programming expert before you join us. You will explore a variety of industry-standard tools (such as R and Python), which will allow you to choose which technologies you want to specialise in.
We offer all students the opportunity to take the Microsoft Office Specialist qualification which includes valuable expertise in Excel.
