On UCL’s Population Health Sciences (Data Science) BSc, you will study the factors shaping our health, including the social and physical environment, healthcare systems, our lifestyles and genes. This three-year course provides a grounding in the social science disciplines used in population health science, preparing you for research and professional practice in the health sector and beyond. This course also has the option of a study abroad year.
Population Health Sciences gives you a broad and deep understanding of how health and disease are measured and analysed, incorporating research methods, demography, infectious and non-communicable disease and life course epidemiology. World-leading researchers immerse you in the social, economic and demographic distribution of health and disease, and show you how to analyse big data to address health inequalities.
Population health sciences (data science) will emphasise the study of population health using large datasets. The study of data science will provide you with the skills to clean, integrate, and analyse complex datasets, to understand patterns and trends in health and disease, and inform policy with data-driven insights.
In Year 1 and 2, you gain a thorough understanding of how health and disease are measured and analysed, incorporating research methods, demography, and infectious and non-communicable disease. You receive applied data analysis training in all years, bringing data and theory together in a hands-on learning environment.
