University of New South Wales
Master of Data Science
Nationally Recognised Higher EducationIt takes sophisticated thinking to find the simple answers that lie underneath layers of increasingly complex, interwoven webs of data, and businesses are turning to people with the advanced technical and mathematical skills to unpick complexities and make sense of the numbers.
Delivered 100% online, the Master of Data Science explores more ways to organise, identify, analyse and ultimately use data to inform strategies, redefine ambiguous questions and find answers that make a genuine impact.
This program has been designed to deliver skills that are in the highest demand and the most difficult to find. Depending on where you wish to direct your Data Scientist career, you can specialise in areas such as machine learning, database systems or statistics. Regardless of what you choose to specialise in, the foundational skills you’ll learn before you specialise are as broad as they are deep.
