One of the most exciting areas of computer science is data science and artificial intelligence. Both of these fields study the applications of data in modern businesses and modern engineering, with artificial intelligence focused on using data to develop intelligent systems that can think and learn for themselves.
Developers, engineers, analysts and scientists all have a role to play in the data science and machine learning sector. Most of these positions start with getting the right education, such as a masters in data science, to give them the complex scientific knowledge needed to thrive in the industry.
Designed for students from a non-computing background, this programme will develop your key knowledge and technical skills that you can apply immediately in the workplace. You will learn how to gather and analyse information to make data-driven decisions, and how intelligent systems can be used across a range of contexts.
Your learning will be supported by cutting-edge research into the field by the University of Liverpool, who is a world leader in data science and artificial intelligence research. Our Digital Innovation Facility, which officially opened in 2022, provides a purpose-built environment for cutting-edge research into multiple academic disciplines including AI, robotics and data analytics.
The MSc programme is accredited by the BCS, The Chartered Institute for IT, for the purposes of meeting the further learning academic requirement for registration as a Chartered IT Professional.
An Executive Scholarship of 15% is available for our March and May 2025 intakes.
A UK Scholarship of 20% is available for students residing in the United Kingdom, who enrol on the March and May 2025 intakes of our full masters awards.
International students residing in specific regions outside the UK may be eligible for a Regional Scholarship of up to 20%.
A separate application form is not required for a scholarship, as it will be applied once you have received your official offer letter. Please note, scholarships cannot be combined but can be used alongside our Up-front Payment Discount.
Applicants for this programme should hold either:
(i) a degree in any subject equivalent to a UK Bachelors degree (2:2 or above), or
(ii) at least 2 years experience in employment, which would normally be of a technical nature, comparable with the award of a bachelors degree.
