Data science is an exciting area with a dynamic job market, including in healthcare. Our graduates have gone on to work for a range of companies, including large research organisations and small start-ups, while others are working in health care or pursuing their interests in universities, working towards PhDs.

The programme is delivered by health informaticians, clinicians, statisticians, and computer scientists from UCL, including world-leading researchers in data science and biomedical informatics. You will learn about cutting-edge research projects. Programme content is aligned with the Health Data Research UK (HDR UK), the UK's national institute for health and biomedical informatics research. This MSc will draw on that collaboration, giving students access to the most advanced research in the field.

We work closely with a range of employing organisations - hospitals, data science companies, pharmaceuticals, and other SMEs - to ensure that our graduates have the best possible preparation for a career in data science. This includes offering industry-sponsored dissertations for selected students, giving scientific seminars, or providing internships.
