Training
Training future leaders in data science.
Data science is revolutionising every area of science, engineering, and commerce. It offers the potential for huge societal and economic benefits.
We are home to a range of postgraduate and professional training. We create our data science professional training in collaboration with many high profile industry leaders. Our aim is to address the skills shortage in data analytics.
We bring together students and industry in a setting which develops new technologies and translates them into industry practice.
Through our data science professional training courses, you'll receive a comprehensive grounding in theory and application of data science. You'll develop the multi-disciplinary combination of skills in statistics and computer science. You will also gain the ability to apply these skills to real problems in a given application area.

Centre for Doctoral Training: Geospatial Systems
The centre is no longer taking applications.
We aim to train the next generation of world-leading geospatial engineers and scientists.
The demand is huge. The Geospatial Commission predict that opening up geospatial data in the UK could have an annual economic impact of £11bn. And the global geospatial industry is expected to be worth $500bn.
This four-year training PhD was developed from our world-leading research and informed by our industry partners. PhD researchers gain high-level, industry-standard, knowledge, and skills in:
- Internet of Things (IoT)
- big data management
- new analytical methods such as Artificial Intelligence (AI)
