Applied Data Science MSc

The ongoing progress in mathematical tools and automated data acquisition, combined with the growth of very large datasets and computational power, has established data science as a mature discipline with a rapidly growing number of exploitations in a wide spectrum of applications.

This course has been carefully planned and is designed to develop your knowledge and skills in modern data science practice. It combines a project-based approach with opportunity for personal development through a flexible and supportive learning experience.

Learning Environment and Assessment

You will benefit from a dedicated data science lab for teaching purposes in the new Engineering Innovation Centre (EIC) building. Equipment includes modern graphics processing unit (GPU) cards for running simulations of data science projects. The course team has domain experts with expertise in data science and related applications such as medical imaging, signal analysis for non-invasive inspection, computer aided diagnosis.

Opportunities

You will participate in a School Expo to present your project to an external audience, including industry representatives. This includes a three-minute competition for your project.

As a graduate, you will be equipped with skills in working on modern data science projects as an individual as well as in a team.

Upon graduation you may apply for a PhD.
