LJMU's Data Science programme trains Scientists, Engineers and Mathematicians in this new field. It is taught by experts from two university departments. The challenges in data science are multi-faceted and very complex in their nature, including handling the huge amount of data in incompatible legacy databases.  By exploiting cloud computing services, data scientists are now relatively free from the constraints of hardware and can concentrate on applying their domain knowledge and experience to make sense of the data. They can apply advanced statistical techniques and machine learning algorithms to make informed decisions which can deliver a major impact on their organisations. There are six core modules covering statistical and computing techniques plus an extended research project in this programme. It is delivered via a combination of lectures, tutorials and hands-on computer laboratory sessions. The research project module is a major component of this MSc programme.
