Data Science MSc

The UK Government has identified a massive shortage of specialists in data science and artificial intelligence. The University of Sunderland is looking for a new generation of idealists, visionaries, and problem solvers to help businesses, industry, and government make the right decisions in our increasingly complex and uncertain world.

This course is designed for students who have computing, STEM experience, or prior experience in working with data (e.g., statistics) to gain the knowledge and skills required to work in data science or data analytics in the real world. We are looking for people who ask questions, don’t jump to conclusions, and respond with caution. We want people who can find and communicate the best possible solutions.

In this course, you’ll study subjects including the fundamentals of data science, data mining, machine learning, data analytics and visualization, and big data security. This convenient course means you’ll have the opportunity to experience the latest technologies and tools used in the industry, giving you the confidence to be productive and effective when you enter the workplace.
