Msc Data Science in University of Dundee, UK

Msc Data Science in University of Dundee

Data Science is now one of the most sought after roles in the commercial and academic worlds.  So much so that finding a qualified data scientist is known as "hunting the unicorn".

Dundee was the first University in the UK to predict the importance of Data Science and introduced the UK's first Data Science MSc back in 2013.  Consequently, we are at the forefront of Data Science study and have more experience of teaching it than any other University in the UK. We also designed our course to be easy to complete part-time and largely remotely.

This MSc will prepare you to become a data scientist, a person who excels at manipulating and analysing data, particularly large data sets that don't fit easily into tabular structures (so-called "Big Data").

The MSc Data Science at the University of Dundee is unique both in the material it delivers and in the way it is taught. Aimed at people currently working in IT who wish to obtain a formal qualification whilst continuing to work, our program will equip you with the knowledge you need to succeed in Data Science, whether you are already working in the field or you wish to move into this exciting and growing area. The course is usually taken part-time over two years, although it can be taken full time or as stand-alone modules or as a Post Graduate Certificate.

For part-time students, the course is delivered via a blend of:

• Two weeks of intensive teaching each year on campus, one week in January/February and one week in April/May.
• Distance Learning –  for the remainder of the time students work from home.

All the modules for this course were written specifically for it and are not constructed from pre-existing material, ensuring that all modules are relevant and tightly integrated.  These modules can also be taken either on a stand-alone basis or as a PGCert.

Careers

Various job sites now report an increase in jobs carrying the title of data scientist. Other career opportunities are in intelligence analysis, data management/database maintenance, data processing manager, database development and research, business intelligence consultant and more.
