This brief postgraduate award lays groundwork in mathematics, statistics and computing, including the programming approaches and tools at the heart of data science. The subject combines several disciplines to draw useful insight out of organised and unorganised data. Employment prospects in the field are described as strong across Australia and the wider region. Completing the award lets students step into semester two of the Master of Data Science. Classes are held at both Perth campuses. The course is accredited by ECU at AQF level 8 and takes 0.5 years full-time to complete. Course code I98. Prospective students should consult the official course page for entry details and fees, since these can change between intakes, and should check how the course is delivered and which campus suits them before applying.
