What you will learn You will gain a broad knowledge of data science including tools, techniques and applications, and acquire valuable practical problem-solving and analytical skills. You will also acquire strong programming and data analysis skills using Python and R - the most popular programming languages used by data scientists today. Your training in artificial intelligence will involve machine learning, neural networks and natural language processing, so that you can gain in-depth knowledge and understanding of current AI techniques and applications. You will benefit from the chance to investigate specific areas of current research more deeply too.
This degree is designed for graduates who are new to computer science, so the main requirement is at least a second-class honours degree (2:2) or equivalent, in any subject other than single-honours computer science. Applicants with less than the required level of academic qualification may be considered if they have significant experience in the IT industry.
