This programme is for students who have a numerate first degree or can demonstrate numerate skills. Students are often at the early stages of their careers in diverse professions including economics, statistics and computer science. Students will have a curiosity about data, and will want to learn new techniques to boost their career and be part of exciting current industry developments. The MSc in Data Science includes some complex programming tasks because of the applied nature of the course, so many students have a mathematics or statistics background and enjoy working with algorithms. The demand for data scientists in the UK has grown more than ten-fold in the past five years *. The amount of data in the world is growing exponentially. From analysing tyre performance to detecting problem gamblers, wherever data exists, there are opportunities to apply it. City's MSc Data Science programme covers the intersection of computer science and statistics, machine learning and practical applications. We explore areas such as visualisation because we believe that data science is about generating insight into data as well as its communication in practice. The programme focuses on machine learning as the most exciting technology for data and we have learned from our own graduates that this is of high value when it comes to employment within the field. At City, we have excellent expertise in machine learning and the facilities students need to learn the technical aspects of data analysis.

Modules:
This course is also offered as an 'MSc with Placement,' which includes an additional 120 credit module and extends the study period by an extra 12 months.
Alongside modules we also recommend students start learning Python as it is the programming language they will use at the start of the programme.
Full-time students attend all taught modules during Term 1 and 2, three to four days a week. Teaching is generally during the day (09:00 to 18:00), but some elective modules may be taught in the evening. When you have passed all the modules, you will proceed to your individual project in Term 3.
Part-time students take half the modules during Term 1 and 2 in the first year, and half in the second year. You will need to attend one or two days a week. Teaching is generally during the day (09:00 to 18:00), but some elective modules may be taught in the evening. When you have passed all the modules, you will proceed to your individual project over 6 months (Jul-Dec), within the 27-month period of the degree.
