Do you want to find patterns in data, build AI that solves real problems, or create smart systems that make better decisions? At Dundee, you don’t just study Data Science and AI, you use them to make a difference.
This degree gives you the skills to understand and work with data. You will learn how to design AI systems that can learn and adapt. You’ll take part in hands-on projects, work in teams, and use the same tools as professional data scientists. Your learning will be based on real challenges, not just theory.
You will study topics like machine learning, data visualisation, natural language processing, and ethical AI. You will work with real datasets and create models that can predict outcomes. You will see how data and AI shape the world and how you can use them in different careers.
As part of your course, you will have the opportunity to participate in an industrial placement that will occur prior to your final year of study. This placement will provide you with a unique chance to develop your career aspirations and gain first-hand experience working in the computing industry. You will have the opportunity to apply for competitive placement positions with both local and national industry partners. Throughout your placement, you will have the opportunity to gain valuable skills and knowledge that will help you succeed in your future career.
Create with purpose
Data and AI can change the world, but how we use them is important. At Dundee, you will learn to use these tools to help people and solve problems. This could mean improving healthcare, tackling climate change, helping businesses, or making technology easier to use. You will work on projects that have meaning and impact.
Learn by doing
You will not just sit in lectures waiting to start. From your first day, you will work with real data and build systems. You will use industry tools like Python, R, TensorFlow, GitHub, and AWS. You will work with others to solve problems and create a portfolio that shows employers what you can do.
