About this programme
The course develops expertise in data management, analysis, visualisation and interpretation using industry-standard tools including SAS, R, Python and Apache Hadoop. It combines theory with practical projects across machine learning, AI applications and business intelligence. Entry requires a good honours degree in computing, computer science, maths, statistics or other relevant areas, or at least one year of direct work experience in a relevant field. The course scored 100% for overall student satisfaction in the 2026 Postgraduate Taught Student Satisfaction Survey. What the fee covers: the international and EU full-time rate, quoted 'for the course'. The course is one year, so this equals the annual cost. Fee year: 2026-27. English requirement as published: IELTS 6.0 with 5.5 in all skills. Before you budget: the page prints '£18,600 for the course' for international and EU students, against Home '£10,940 for the course', for 2026/27. That is quoted for the whole course rather than per year; the course is one year, so the figures coincide. City Campus, Sheffield. Which intake you can actually apply for: the course page carries the notice 'this course is now closed to international applications for September 2026'. January 2027 is the live entry point for international applicants. Intake status changes, so check the page again before you apply.
