Data is “the new oil” of the 21st century. Big data and data science are revolutionising many fields—from science and engineering to economics, the tech sector, and digital humanities.

 

Our Master of Data Science places you at the forefront of this new field.

We give you the knowledge and skills to discover patterns and generate insights from complex datasets. Our flexible program structure lets you customise your study to the areas you care about. You’ll be taught by international research leaders in data science and machine learning. Finally, you’ll apply your skills in a research project and data science industry internship, to launch you into your next career.

 

What will you do during a Master of Data Science?

• Undertake a specialised introductory data science class (MATHS 7107 Data Taming) in your first study period.
• Build core skills in programming (Python, R, and Julia), mathematics and statistical data science.
• Learn how data science techniques can drive changes in organisations, industries and communities.
• Use data to answer questions in your chosen areas of interest.
• Apply your learning in a significant research project or internship.
