Insights from data science are most valuable when they exist alongside a knowledge and understanding of the ways in which individuals, businesses and governments make decisions.

On our Economics and Data Science MSc, you will learn about the data science methods used widely in economic analysis, such as Lasso, random forests, supervised learning, neural networks, Large Language Models, and foundation models. This will be combined with a study of core economics and econometrics topics.

You will take specialist core modules that will teach key methods such as machine learning and coding, economic decision making and their application in economics. You can choose from a range of options to suit your interests and career goals. You will also undertake a dissertation in big data economics.

With an advanced degree in economics and data science from the University of Nottingham, you will graduate with all the knowledge, practical skills and confidence you need to stand out to employers and progress as a professional economist, policy maker or academic researcher.

Our graduates have successfully secured positions at top organisations such as Barclays, Bloomberg, Deloitte, Economist Intelligence Unit, Goldman Sachs, IBM, PwC, and Thomson Reuters.
