Data Science (Taught)

95% of our research overall in Mathematical Sciences was assessed to be world leading or internationally excellent (REF 2021)

Do you wish to work in industry or plan to pursue further study? Are you interested in data science and its application to science and technology? If so, this course is for you.

On this MSc, you’ll learn about the theory and practice of state-of-the-art data science with applications ranging from mathematics to physics, and from biology to computer science. You’ll develop the skills to provide and use appropriate and up-to-date tools to deal with large datasets common in industrial practice and academic science.

You’ll learn in an intellectually stimulating environment and develop your research skills. Your MSc dissertation, supported by one of our expert faculty, gives you the opportunity to explore in depth an area of your choice. You’ll be able to focus on the particular application area that interests you most.

We understand that deciding where and what to study is a very important decision. We’ll make all reasonable efforts to provide you with the courses, services and facilities described in this prospectus. However, if we need to make material changes, for example due to government or regulatory requirements, or unanticipated staff changes, we’ll let you know as soon as possible.
