This interdisciplinary programme will provide you with training in fundamental aspects of applied data science, computation and programming, and quantitative methods.
With the rise of new and big forms of data, and computation and analytics forming ever-increasingly important elements of a wide range of professions, this programme will prepare you for a variety of careers in the private, non-profit and public sectors.
With a background in social sciences, you will be trained to use data to answer interesting social science questions. You will take a series of project-based programming courses specifically designed for students without a formal computing or statistical background. A typical student will also have taken a prior course in quantitative methods or applied statistics at a basic level, although this is not a formal requirement.
Upper second class honours (2:1) degree or equivalent in social science, data science, statistics or a quantitative field. Work experience is advantageous but not required.
