Summary

This MSc in Data Science is designed to train highly qualified data analysts – or data scientists – to embark on careers in a wide range of industries. You’ll be given an excellent practical and theoretical grounding in data mining and statistics with the chance to customise your degree through modules in artificial intelligence, visualisation, programming, database manipulation and other specialised subjects. 

As a student of this Data Science course, you’ll be part of our vibrant research community and will have very good opportunities to progress to a PhD. You’ll be part of a research group that has made significant contributions in techniques for data mining and KDD – including KDD Methodologies; use of metaheuristics for rule and tree induction; all-rule induction; clustering techniques; feature subset selection; feature construction; time series classification as well as many applications in the financial services industry, medicine, agritech, and telecommunications. 

Data Scientists are highly prized for their advanced, practical skill set and their increasing importance to the success of a modern business. Organisations in almost any industry need to source, analyse and utilise vast amounts of data to aid strategic decision-making, so you’ll have great graduate career prospects as well as a wide range of transferrable skills.

We have a large Data Science and Artificial Intelligence research group, which has made significant contributions to the field in the last 10 years, so you’ll be working directly with pioneering experts. 

The research group has collaborated in research or consultancy projects with a wide range of organisations, including: the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BBSRC), the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC), the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries and The Royal Society, Alston Transport, Derbyshire Police, Aviva, and National Air Traffic Services. 

You’ll graduate with a wealth of knowledge, prestigious connections and research experience – putting you one step ahead of other graduates in your career or further studies. The course – one of the most established in this area with over 18 years of history – offers an excellent platform to help you forge a successful career in data analysis.
