Health Data Science is an interdisciplinary programme that is designed to prepare you for the constantly evolving landscape of data-driven health care.
The programme is based on a research and practice-driven approach, which enables you to engage with real health data. This approach helps you learn how to solve complex computational and analytical health-related problems that are relevant to healthcare, epidemiology and biomedical research.
The curriculum is designed to bridge disciplines and reflect the collaborative nature of health data science itself, with content covering statistical modelling, machine learning, and data analysis and management.
From early in the programme, you will work with tools and technologies used in the field, such as R, SQL and Python developing your computational literacy alongside your knowledge of clinical, health-related data. The projects you will engage with are highly practical, and reflect real-world challenges, ranging from data handling to predictive modelling in clinical settings.
