数据科学理学硕士

所有组织都面临着如何分析和使用数据的挑战，最成功的组织是有效处理和利用数据的组织。因此，越来越多的组织需要数据科学家。在本课程中，您将学习数据科学概念及其在组织中的应用，以支持数据驱动的方法来解决问题。您将获得一套基本原则，这些原则支持从数据中按原则提取信息和知识。案例研究将有助于说明这些原则在现实生活中的实际应用。您还将学习如何捕获，清理，汇总，组织，分析和使用数据，以及数据建模，数据挖掘，数据分析和可视化的实践经验。在整个计划中，将有机会使用各种工具（例如R和SPSS，Weka和Tableau / S
All organisations face the challenge of how to analyse and use data. On this course, you'll learn data science concepts and how to support data-driven approaches to problem-solving within complex organisational and societal contexts. Gain an in-depth understanding of the theory and practice of data science and its application in different organisational contexts. You'll be provided with a set of fundamental principles that support ethical extraction of information and knowledge from data. Case studies will help to show the practical application of these principles to real life problems.The programme is centred on three key aspects of data science fundamental data-related principles, supporting infrastructures and organisational context.You'll gain practical skills in handling structured and unstructured data, analysing and visualising data, data mining, as well as gaining hands-on experience of software tools used and their use in real-world settings. You'll gain the skills of a data manager who understands what the algorithms (e.g., for data mining or handling ‘big data’) can do and when to use them for the benefit of the organisation.Throughout the programme, there will be opportunities to gain hands-on experience using a variety of tools, such as R, Python and SPSS, Weka or TableauSpotfire and, although you're not required to have any knowledge of these tools before starting the course, it may be advantageous to read up on them in advance. You'll conduct in-depth research into your particular areas of interest for your dissertation.
