Our MSc Health Data Science course aims to create a new breed of scientist who can understand the healthcare sector and medicine, how data is collected and analysed, and how this can be communicated to influence various stakeholders.
This MSc promotes the need for translational thinking to provide the knowledge, skills and understanding that will be applied across new challenges within healthcare delivery.
Students from a variety of professional backgrounds will benefit from the course, as the structure of the MSc ensures that you will share this knowledge with each other and learn to work in multidisciplinary teams, rather than in specialist silos.
The course has eight taught units covering key skills for health data science. Seven units are core and there is one optional unit depending on training needs and background. For the MSc, there is also a 60-credit research project.
We require an honours degree (minimum Upper Second) or overseas equivalent in: Mathematics, Statistics, Computer Science
Physical Science or Biomedical Science (including Epidemiology, Biological Sciences or Medicine/Nursing). Your degree must have had significant statistical and computational elements and be from a recognised institution or an approved and relevant postgraduate qualification (minimum postgraduate diploma or equivalent). We may also accept the equivalent of previous advanced study, research and/or relevant professional experience that the University accepts as qualifying the candidate for entry. In the case of non-UK applicants, the institution certifying advanced study must be recognised and approved by the University. You may be accepted for entry to the postgraduate diploma track with a Lower Second degree or under subject to interview, and be moved to the master’s track on achieving suitable results in the taught part of the course.
