Data Science DipHE

This two-year course will introduce you to the fundamentals of Data Science and data analysis and give you practical experience working with industry-standard tools, systems and programming languages. Through problem-based learning, practical computer-based workshops and group activities, you will gain the skills and knowledge you need to succeed in industry.

What is a 'DipHE'? A Diploma of Higher Education (DipHE) at Level 5 is awarded after two years of full-time study at university. Our DipHE programmes are hands-on and practical, with flexible learning options available so you can choose to study full or part time.

You can take a DipHE straight from college when you have completed qualifications like BTECs or A-Levels. Some people choose to take a gap year first or spend some time working before they start a DipHE.

Diplomas of Higher Education are perfect for people who want a university experience, but do not want to take a full undergraduate degree qualification. You get the support and teaching quality of a degree but don’t have to commit to three years of study before you begin. A DipHE can lead directly to a career as you will have gained valued skills and experience, or you might choose to continue with further studies.
