Data Science - BSc (Hons)

University of Warwick

Our accredited Data Science (BSc) degree provides an essential mix of highly developed mathematical, statistical and computing skills for those interested in working at the forefront of the modern data revolution. Our graduates are appropriately equipped to lead careers which leverage advanced technology to extract value from data or which develop such technologies.* A curriculum for today’s jobs: You will develop skills in mathematical and statistical modelling, software engineering and algorithm design which build a strong foundation for careers in manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, finance, telecoms and scientific research. You may further specialise in areas such as computational statistics, data visualisation, machine learning or AI. In the third year students complete a project where they work on a data science problem from conception through to design, execution and delivery. When available projects may be offered in collaboration with industry.* Royal Statistical Society accreditation: The degree is accredited by the Royal Statistical Society which means, with suitable module choices, you will be able to qualify as a Chartered Statistician after five years of relevant work experience.* Multi-disciplinary approach: In the first year you will take core modules delivered by four research-strong departments (Business School, Computer Science, Mathematics Institute and Statistics). This enables you to choose optional modules offered by these departments in the second year.* Academic support: We have an established support system to help you with the transition into higher education, including a refresher course and small group support classes. For example, during Year 1, your mathematics homework will be marked by a supervisor who will discuss the feedback with you in small groups.* Option to add Year in Industry or Study Abroad Year: You may choose to spend an intercalated year in an approved industry, business or university between your last two years at Warwick, subject to availability and to satisfactory academic performance. You will be supported by a Senior Careers Consultant or the Study Abroad Team during the application process.
