Key Course Facts

Course Description

Data is one of the 21st century’s most valuable commodities. Understanding how to analyse, validate and interpret it to inform decision making are key skills in just about every walk of life. Nationally, there is a widely recognised shortage of qualified Artificial Intelligence (AI) and data scientists to meet the needs of industry.

This course is will equip you with the skills and professional insight you need to launch a career in this fast-growing sector. The programme is aimed at STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) and non-STEM graduates, who want to develop their digital skills. It’s also suitable for people who are looking to upskill and improve their career prospects.

Experience in programming is not required.

You’ll cover topics such as programming, statistics, machine learning, big data, data visualisation, computer vision and the ethical and legal responsibilities of using data. Learning is delivered online and on-campus through a series of bespoke taught modules. In the third semester, you will do an academic dissertation or an industrial placement, where you will apply your knowledge to real-world problems, using data science and AI solutions. The University has teamed up with a range of employers to offer internship opportunities to students.

At the end of the course, graduates will have developed key competencies in AI and data science, including programming, data visualisation, problem-solving and data interpretation.

You will be able to apply AI and data science techniques to real-world problems; critically evaluate AI and data science methodologies; plan, design and carry out empirical research, and interpret, present and communicate the outcomes of data science and AI solutions.

The course combines expertise from Departments across the Faculty of Science and Engineering, including Computer Science and Physics and Mathematics. You’ll have access to VIPER – one of the most powerful high-performance computers in the Higher Education sector. Our Computer Science research is ranked 5th in the UK for impact.
