Data science sits at the intersection
between mathematics, statistics,
computer science but also experimental science.
At Exeter in particular we have a new Institute for Data Science and Artificial Intelligence.
We also teach a variety of application areas: social network analysis, cyber security,
lots of interesting topic areas where data
science is having an impact.
We have amazing advances in computational power
but also the datasets that are available now are just amazing.
It's just a fantastic time to get involved.
The University of Exeter's facilities
are really extensive.
By studying a Data Science masters with
the University of Exeter,
you are learning from really the experts in the field
and you're learning with people from lots of different backgrounds
so you get a much fuller understanding of what Data Science is.
It is a great time to be a data scientist.
As people apply these technologies, the demand for people who have the skill to do that is just exploding.
It's really important to be able to take this data and apply it to solving real world problems.
It's a really good opportunity.
It's a really enjoyable experience learning and deducing meaning from data.
At Exeter in particular we have partnerships with a lot of large organisations,  both commercial and public sector
and those offer great opportunities
for student placements.
All of those collaborations just make it
a really exciting, vibrant place to work.
We're sending people out into industry with a great skillset to get involved in the digital revolution.
We have a lot of opportunities for great
people to come and get involved,
so when you go out to apply your 
data science skills in industry
you're hitting the ground running.
