About this programme
The course develops competencies in data science and artificial intelligence through project-based work on real datasets, machine learning applications and neural networks. Ethical considerations in AI deployment are taught alongside the technical content. Delivery combines lectures, laboratory work, seminars and collaborative industry projects. Entry requires an undergraduate degree at 2:2 or above with evidence of some programming experience, from either the degree or work experience.
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: international and EU is '£18,600 for the course' and Home is '£10,940 for the course', for 2026/27. Programming experience must be evidenced at application — a 2:2 on its own is not enough for this course. 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.
