Postgraduate taught programmes

This master's degree offers you the opportunity to obtain specialist knowledge in the design, analysis, implementation, and use of computer systems ranging from the components of a single processor to computer networks as vast as the Internet.

Cognitive Science is an exciting and interdisciplinary area spanning fields including computer science, linguistics, psychology, neuroscience, and philosophy.

This programme will provide you with in-demand skills and knowledge of the techniques and technologies underpinning parallelism and High Performance Computing (HPC).

You will learn leading-edge HPC technologies and skills to exploit the full potential of the world’s largest supercomputers and multicore processors.

Data science is the study of the computational principles, methods, and systems for extracting and structuring knowledge from data; and the application and use of those principles. Large data sets are now generated by almost every activity in science, society, and commerce - ranging from molecular biology to social media, from sustainable energy to health care.

The Computational Applied Mathematics MSc provides its students with the strong foundations needed to contribute to these advances and become science and technology leaders.

Our programme provides you with in-demand skills and knowledge of the techniques and technologies underpinning parallelism and HPC. It gives you the skills required to become experienced practitioners, researchers, and leaders across HPC, computational and data science, and software engineering.

The Masters in Mathematical Economics and Econometrics enables those who have a strong quantitative background in subjects such as mathematics, physics, engineering and computer science, to acquire a masters-level understanding of economics. The programme is also open to economics students who would like to deepen their grasp of the quantitative aspects of economics.

Design Informatics combines data science with design thinking in a context of critical enquiry to create compelling and meaningful new data-driven experiences, products and services.
