Computer Science – Data Science pathway

From the underlying principles to the very edge of modern technology, this programme will cover all aspects of Computer Science and ensure that when you graduate you will know exactly what is and isn't possible with computers. With our ever-increasing volume of data, it is essential that we can exploit the right theories and tools to extract meaningful knowledge. The Data Science pathway develops understanding of data and elicits usable knowledge, and teaches students the necessary skills to analyse, discover and apply the knowledge from larger repositories and data sources. Data Science investigates the extraction of novel knowledge and insight from different types of data. Your first year is designed to provide a strong foundation in computer science, with a focus on programming, computer systems, data structures, algorithms, and introductory artificial intelligence. In Years two and three, Students choose from topics including Big Data Analysis, Machine Learning and Data Mining, Databases and Knowledge Bases, Knowledge-based Systems, High-Performance Computing, Knowledge Graphs and Web-Scale Ontologies, Image Processing, and Neural Networks. On this pathway, you will graduate with the degree titleBachelor of Science with Honours in Computer Science (Cyber Security) Explore our other Computer Science programme and pathway options: Computer Science BSc (Hons) Computer Science BSc (Algorithms and Optimisation) (Hons) Computer Science BSc (Artificial Intelligence) (Hons) Computer Science BSc (Cyber Security) (Hons) We also offer a four year MEng (master’s) programmeComputer Science MEng. This programme is also available as an option with a Year in Industry, Year in China or Year Abroad. Our Computer Science BSc programmes are accredited by the British Computer Society which means that the course is continually updated and adapted to reflect new technologies and emerging trends. Accredited by BCS, so opens up a wide variety of career opportunities with excellent emplo
