Data Science (Psychology) (Taught)

Data science is an increasingly attractive career destination for graduates, offering lucrative and fulfilling employment opportunities in a variety of sectors.

The purpose of this course is to 'upskill' psychology graduates (and those from neighbouring disciplines) to prepare for a career in data science, with a particular emphasis on human-related data sets that are common in industry and third sector organisations.

This could include the use of social media data, large-scale customer surveys, game data, neuroimaging data, and census data to address problems relevant to businesses, charities and governments. You'll graduate with a unique set of skills that will allow you to work professionally with such data sets and any that involve human behavioural data.
