Learn to use specialist technologies and processes to extract crucial knowledge and insights from data, with our Data and Analytical Science degree in Peterborough. Data science, especially when paired with artificial intelligence, promises to provide the tools to enhance technology, business models, and decision-making across a range of sectors, from industrial automation, manufacturing, transport, banking, and cybersecurity to health, human resource management, and social care. Data scientists are in demand, with almost all industries keen to take advantage of the insights that data analysis and machine learning can offer. If you plan to build a career in this ever-growing and popular field , our BSc (Hons) Data and Analytical Science degree offers an excellent opportunity. As a student at ARU Peterborough, you’ll use applied mathematics, statistics, and computing to explore and analyse complex datasets – and to solve practical, real-world problems. On this course, you’ll learn practical data science and analytical skills, tailored to comply with the current market demands, technologies, and industrial practices. We’ll take you, step by step, through the major building blocks of data science which will enable you to gain highly marketable skills such as programming, data acquisition and cleaning, data analysis and feature extraction, data visualisation, data mining, and machine learning. You will gain the ability to understand the statistical, mathematical, and computational foundations of data science and machine learning techniques and to perform statistical analysis, build and validate models from the data. By your final year, you will have developed the required knowledge in artificial intelligence and skills to conduct an end to end data science project through the final project module. We incorporate genuine datasets and industry-simulated projects and practices into our modules, so that you gain a thorough understanding of the challenges and constraints that businesses and industry face. You’ll be able to craft your skills and expertise accordingly, and graduate ready to work in the fast-moving field of data science.
