Course overview

Large data sets are widespread in business, science and government. Consequently, there is an increasing demand for data-savvy professionals, both in industry and in research, who are able to make sense of complex datasets, build models and apply them to the solution of relevant problems. 

This conversion course is part of the government's response to the shortage of data science and artificial intelligence specialists in the UK. It aims to help students without strong backgrounds in programming or statistics to acquire a level of skill in these areas and learn to apply them.

Like many MSc courses in the School of Computer Science and Mathematics, Data Science benefits from a diverse community of learners. You will study in week-long blocks that can fit around different work/study patterns. You will also get to take advantage of opportunities for exposure to cutting-edge examples and exercises.

Please note that this course will begin earlier than other Kingston courses, to allow us to deliver a two-week ‘boot camp' of intensive pre-sessional teaching, to equip you with the technical skills needed to complete the course.
