How can data help us understand a problem, make a prediction or decide what to do next? BSc (Hons) Data Science and Analytics with AI at Liverpool Hope University brings together mathematics, statistics and computing to help you answer these questions. You will develop practical skills in analysing data while learning the reasoning behind the methods you use.Drawing on expertise across Mathematics and Computer Science, the course combines programming in Python and R with databases, statistical modelling, data visualisation and machine learning. You will learn to collect and prepare data, identify patterns, build predictive models and assess how much confidence to place in your results. Through machine learning, you will explore how AI methods learn from data and how to evaluate their performance and limitations.Mathematics and statistics form a substantial part of the degree, giving you the foundations to understand uncertainty and choose appropriate analytical methods. Practical investigations, a group project and an individual dissertation will help you apply your knowledge and explain your findings clearly. You will also consider data quality, privacy, bias and the responsible use of data and AI.
