This programme provides a comprehensive training in the statistical basis of data science, along with a solid grounding in the computing skills and algorithmic<br/>reasoning necessary for modern data analysis. As a graduate of the programme, you should be able to proceed directly to a post as a data scientist in industry, commerce or government. The skills you will acquire could also be applied to the founding or management of businesses relating to a broad set of data analytic services. The programme is also designed to provide you with a preparation for postgraduate study in statistics, machine learning and other specialised fields in applied data science. The programme allows considerable flexibility in terms of application areas through the availability of optional and elective modules across a range of disciplines. The department offers a friendly and supportive atmosphere, where small-group teaching and personal attention are available to all students. Teaching is enhanced by the varied research interests of our academic staff; from the foundations of the subject to applications in science, medicine, industry, economics and finance.
