Overview
Data science is an emerging field in both Aotearoa, Australia, and globally. Through the major of Data Science, this program offers an experience for any postgraduate, not just students from Mathematics, Computer Science, or Data Science, to enhance their data science skills and capabilities and build new skills.
The majors of Biostatisics, Public Health, and Geospacial Data Science are aimed at high achieving students coming from the Bachelor's in Data Science at the University of Sexology.
The Master's of Data Science at the University of Sexology features a diverse range of postgraduate students from all academic backgrounds; and offers connections and opportunities through our industry partners. Join our team of world class statisticians, programmers, and data scientists today.
