Course overview

Taught by active researchers and developed with industry experts, prepare for a career where you can use data-driven solutions to make a positive impact on society.
Most data science courses are based in computer science or engineering departments - our degree is based in social sciences. That’s because we think it’s important to teach you not just the programming and analysis tools, but also how to use data-driven solutions responsibly and to the benefit of society.
Data science underpins all kinds of decision-making, so you could be studying data from a sports team to improve performance, using real-world data as part of the solution to climate change, or analysing business expenditure.
With opportunities to study abroad, work-based placements and developing your personal portfolio, you’ll be in a strong position for the future.
