Data Science and Analytics

About this course

Data science and analytics has emerged as one of the defining fields of the early twenty-first century, as organisations across every sector recognise that the ability to extract meaningful insight from large and complex datasets is central to effective decision-making. The volume of data generated globally has grown at a rate that few predicted even a decade ago, and the skills needed to work with it effectively, combining statistical reasoning, programming, machine learning, and domain knowledge, are in high demand. At the University of Portsmouth, this three-year full-time degree develops those capabilities in a rigorous and applied way. You will study the mathematical and statistical foundations of data analysis, including probability, regression, and inference, alongside programming in languages such as Python and R, database management, machine learning techniques, and data visual
