Data Science (Analytics and Applications) PgCert

If you have previous computing experience and want to build skills to develop your career, then this is the perfect opportunity for you to begin to specialise in Data Science, a key growth area within the IT sector.<br/><br/>Data Science skills are typically in high demand in many industries including IT, business, security, health, intelligent transport, energy, and the creative industries. Data and analytics capabilities has developed rapidly in recent years. The volume of available data has grown exponentially, more sophisticated algorithms have been developed, and computational power and storage have steadily improved.
