Applied Data Science MSc

Data scientists are responsible for the handling of raw data, analysing it, identifying patterns and presenting insights in a manner that is useful for forecasting and predicting business problems. The data science field uses mathematics, statistics, machine learning, a range of computer science disciplines and a common toolset such as Python, SQL, and R.

Data scientists are in high demand as government departments and leading companies realise the importance of big data and its applications to developing successful strategies in their decision making or business relations.

You gain technical and critical thinking skills in applying knowledge of data science to real-world problems, and learn fundamentals of software for digital innovation, applied machine learning, big data and business intelligence, interactive visualisation of data, and applications. You explore professional, ethical, security and social implications of future data science technologies, and gain a range of transferable skills to progress into industry.Progressing from almost any first degree discipline, you gain leading-edge skills, solid programming experience, research expertise and optional industry experience to enter this field and rapidly expanding job market. You work closely with our AI and Machine Learning research groups, and have the opportunity to undertake an internship. You can choose from three routes:

One year full-time – a great option to gain a traditional MSc qualification.
Two years full-time (including Advanced Practice) – enhances the qualification by adding a vocational or research-based internship to the one-year programme. This is a great way to gain work experience and give your CV a competitive edge. A research internship provides the opportunity to develop analytical, team-working, research and academic skills by working alongside a research team in an academic setting. We guarantee a research internship, but cannot guarantee a vocational internship. We provide practical support and advice on how to find and secure vocational internship positions.
Up to three years part-time.

Placements, internships and work experience

Increasing student numbers at university makes entry in to the graduate job market very competitive. Research surveys, including those undertaken by High Flyers, highlight the large number of applications for graduate roles (sometimes as high as 70-80 applications for roles on popular graduate training schemes with the big national and international organisations).

Just having a good degree is not enough to give you the best platform to compete for graduate roles - which means work experience, work placements or volunteering is absolutely essential. Employers will be expecting you to have gained experience, articulate what you have gained, including skills you have developed that will be needed in their business.
