Master of Science in Data Science

A one year master degree in data science including a work placement, covering statistics, machine learning, data engineering, visualisation and an applied analytics project.

This includes a work placement, which is unusual among Bath Spa masters and directly addresses the absence of British work history.

Master of Science in Data Science is taught at Bath Spa University, a public university in England with full degree awarding powers. Because the data science master is a degree, it supports an application under the UK Graduate Route, which gives two years of unsponsored work in Britain after you finish. No job offer or sponsor is needed for the data science master, but you must be inside the UK on a valid student visa when you apply. Your student visa covers the length of the data science master plus a short period afterwards. UK rules from January 2024 bar a dependant partner or child on taught courses, so the data science master does not support a family move.

Entry to Master of Science in Data Science is a completed bachelor degree at 50 percent or above. The English requirement is IELTS 6.5 with no band below 5.5, and tuition for the data science master is recorded at GBP 18,755. Bath Spa charges no application fee, and no scholarship is recorded against the data science master. The data science master lists three entry windows, one September start in each of three consecutive years. Apply Study Visa manages your the data science master application, the deposit, the offer, the CAS and the UK student visa as one process.
