6 modules with classes, practical resources and assessment where applicable.

Data science combines powerful computing technology, sophisticated statistical methods, and expert domain knowledge to analyse and gain practical insights from huge amounts of data produced by organisations in the present business environment. The aim of this unit is to introduce a range of data science concepts, data administration and governance and big data sources. 

This unit is designed to introduce the science behind machine intelligence and the philosophical debate around the ambitions of simulating human intelligence to solve real-world problems. Students will be guided to appreciate AI types and applications and develop a better understanding of aspects related to intelligent agents. In this unit, students will master key concepts and gain the practical knowledge to apply machine learning principles to challenging real-world problems. 

This unit is essential for understanding the fundamentals of the data analysis process including gathering, cleaning, analysing and sharing data and communicating insights with the use of visualizations and dashboard tools. It is expected that students doing this unit will gain hands-on experience in implementing data analytic processes and techniques using a programming language such as Python or R or a tool such as Weka, KNIME, PowerBI, Excel, etc. 

This unit will introduce you to some of the most widely used predictive modelling techniques and their core principles. Through this unit, you will form a solid foundation of predictive analytics, which refers to tools and techniques for building statistical or machine learning models to make predictions based on data. You will learn how to carry out exploratory data analysis to gain insights and prepare data for predictive modelling.  

This unit aims to provide an overview of fundamental concepts in probability and statistics from the first principles. It will introduce the core probability and statistical methods used in data science and a range of data analytic processes and techniques. 

This unit aims to develop learners’ ability to prepare for various types of academically based computing research through the development and design of a research proposal. Learners will develop a critical understanding of the philosophical, practical, and ethical concepts of research within the computing discipline.
