Data Science

Explore the field, understand the learning priorities and compare specific programme titles.

What does data science cover?

Statistics, programming, data preparation, exploratory analysis and model evaluation.

A specialisation gives a broader qualification a particular focus. Begin with the underlying degree level and then check how many credits, assignments and practical hours are actually devoted to this area. Similar labels can hide very different academic experiences.

How to judge the learning experience

Compare the balance between mathematics, software and the application domain.

  • Compare core modules and elective choices across the full programme.
  • Check the academic prerequisites and any preparatory or bridge modules.
  • Ask how practical work is supervised and assessed.
  • Confirm which software, labs, learning materials or certifications require extra payment.

A project that demonstrates learning

Complete a data investigation from cleaning to modelling and explain the limits of the result.

Ask for a sample project brief and assessment rubric. Look for evidence that you will explain your decisions, respond to feedback and improve the result, rather than only submit a final file.

Choose the degree as well as the specialisation

An undergraduate business programme, a postgraduate management degree and a computing qualification can approach the same topic in different ways. Compare the underlying degree, your academic eligibility and the type of work you want to do. The programme title does not guarantee a particular job, salary or professional recognition.
