Data Visualisation is an increasingly important part of data science. It aims to bridge the gap between the human and data. It supports human perception and cognition to make sense of data analytics outputs.

We created the PGDip, PGCert, MSc Data Science with Specialisation in Visualisation in collaboration with a number of high profile industry leaders. It aims to address the skills shortage in data analytics.

Our master's in data science brings together students and industry practitioners to develop and translate new technologies into industry practice.

You'll receive a comprehensive grounding in the theory and application of data science. You'll also gain the ability to apply these skills to real problems in a given application area.

Through project work, you'll experience the full lifecycle from design of interactive visualization to experimental evaluation of an advanced visualization approach.

Topics covered in the course include:

• Cloud computing
• Bayesian statistics
• Machine learning

You'll benefit from our substantial expertise in data science. We focus on a wide range of application areas, including:

• Healthcare
• Transport
• Cybersecurity
• Smart cities
• Manufacturing
