Computer Science - Data Analytics

Almost everything we do results in data being created and stored somewhere. Individuals, communities, business, and governments face major challenges in harnessing all this data to create knowledge that will underpin a healthier, safer, more productive world. There is a global shortage of talent and expertise in Data Analytics and Data Science. This MSc and Diploma programme will provide graduates of Computing or related degrees with the deep technical knowledge and analytical skills to succeed in this growth area.

This MSc is targeted at high-performing graduates of Level 8 computer science programmes, or Level 8 science/engineering programmes that offer sufficient training in computing. The minimum academic requirement for entry to the programme is a First Class Honours (or equivalent) from a recognised university or third-level college. However, a good Second Class Honours (or equivalent) can be deemed sufficient on the recommendation of the Programme Director.
