This diploma prepares graduates for a quantitative career in data science. Developed by LSE, it will enable you to become a competent and confident data modeller and interpreter, assisting management to make data-driven decisions.

It can also prepare you for future postgraduate study in the field.

Studying this diploma, you will understand:

The techniques and subject matter of theoretical statistics and machine learning.
How to perform independent data analysis: selecting appropriate statistical methods for a given situation and drawing appropriate conclusions following empirical analysis to form the basis of managerial decision-making.
How to use statistical software to analyse datasets.

Career opportunities

As the world becomes ever more data-driven, analytical skills are in high demand but very short supply. Few companies are exploiting quantitative techniques to their full potential, often due to a lack of in-house expertise.

By pursuing study in data science, graduates will be highly sought-after by employers as the race to gain a competitive edge in the data arena intensifies. From asset management to pharmaceuticals, retail to insurance, the future is bright for any aspiring data scientist.

This diploma could also help you to gain entry to master’s courses in this field.
