Studying Data Science and Physics at Keele will give you the opportunity to develop a breadth of knowledge and a wide range of skills in two fascinating subjects. Initial modules will provide you with a grounding in the theoretical underpinnings of both disciplines. In Data Science you will explore the fundamental concepts underlying computer programming together with techniques for applying these using a contemporary programming language. You will look at data science and its relationship with business analytics, statistics, machine learning and artificial intelligence and examine the processes techniques used to extract information from raw data.
Physics will give you the quantitative and analytic skills needed for analysing data and solving problems and is underpinned by a core physics curriculum as set out by the Institute of Physics. This includes the fundamentals of classical and quantum mechanics, electromagnetism, optics, thermodynamics, solid state, atomic and nuclear physics, together with the mathematics that is used to describe them. |
