BSc Data Science is one of the first undergraduate courses of its kind in the UK. With unique teaching and research strengths from the schools of Computer Science and Mathematical Sciences you can expect to gain knowledge and the skills needed to present, analyse and ultimately understand large data sets.
Course content is split equally between mathematics and computer science modules, with an emphasis on statistical and computational data analysis methods, many the result of work in Artificial Intelligence. These are supported by a strong software development theme, providing the skills needed to both understand and apply key techniques. The final-year project provides an opportunity to bring these skills together to address real data analysis problems in a rich and supportive environment.
Typical modules include:
Year one
Year two
Year three
Optional modules
