General requirements

To qualify for entry to the programme a standard applicant must hold a Level 8 Honours Degree 2:2 or above.

While it expected that most applicants will have an honours degree in Computer Science or related discipline, due to the multidisciplinary nature of Data Science an Honours Degree in Engineering, Business and Science will be sufficient.

However, some programming knowledge (Ideally Python or C/C++ or R) and mathematics knowledge are prerequisites to the course.
