Data Science at Northeastern University London - UCAS

Course summary

As data becomes one of the world’s most valuable resources, the demand for data scientists is rising rapidly. Organisations and service providers are looking to increase their technological capacities and their requirements for programming and machine learning skills to analyse and interpret data. As a result, Data Science has emerged as a vital discipline. The BSc (Hons) Data Science focuses on the collection, storage, retrieval and computational analysis of data in various forms (from images to text) and scales (from small to big data.) Key topics include: programming, machine learning and data mining, and information visualisation. The programme teaches the knowledge and techniques to programme with data, learn from data, interpret and visualise it in a way that solves real-world problems. The BSc (Hons) Data Science is designed to equip students with core tools and skills that will enable them to tackle real-world challenges at the heart of our digital economy. These valuable and transferable skills open up a wide array of career possibilities upon graduation, preparing students to become the next-generation leaders with sustained impact and success. Interdisciplinary Study This degree programme combines a rigorous data science syllabus with a personalised elective pathway. Students can choose to deepen their focus on data science through their elective courses, or they can further contextualise and broaden their studies with courses that match other interests and goals. Focus on one subject or study multiple subjects. Discipline Pathways include: Art & Design Business Computer Science Creative Writing Data Science Economics English History Law Philosophy Politics & International Relations Philosophy, Politics & Economics (PPE) Global Experience Northeastern University London offers students exciting global experience opportunities.

Interview

An admissions adviser will review your application and will decide if they would like to invite you for an interview. Interviews at NCH are not a test of knowledge, but rather an excellent opportunity for us to get to know you and your reasons for wanting to study your chosen degree programme, providing you with a unique opportunity to discuss a subject you are passionate about with an academic tutor. Interviews also give you an opportunity to ascertain whether you enjoy the tutorial method of teaching in the ‘taster tutorial’ setting of our interviews. Most students find the interview to be an enjoyable experience.
