MSc Applied Statistics with data science at the Uni of Strathclyde

Hello!

I'm considering the MSc Applied Statistics with data science (online) at the University of Strathclyde: https://www.strath.ac.uk/courses/postgraduatetaught/appliedstatisticswithdatascienceonline/#

I wonder if anyone studying this Online MSc with the Uni of Strathclyde can share your experience? Anything I may need to be aware of before I take this course?

Thanks a million!

Hello,

I'm wondering if you ever did take this course? I am considering taking this course in September. Although I also have an offer for the MSc Big Data from Stirling and trying to decide which would be best.

Thank you

Hi cHhh! May I ask which one you chose in the end? Thinking of applying to Strathclyde but could not find any alumni of their online programs.

Hello, I actually got a fully funded place to study data engineering at Napier from The Data Lab.
However prior to that I had decided on the Stirling course as you can get a Microsoft Azure certificate (not sure which one), and it generally it seemed more geared towards what I was looking for in skills for a job. However I had also applied to Napier as I wanted to learn more of the design side (based on my future job aspirations).
You should look into the data lab and their scholarships, if you're considered a home status student for fees.
Good luck

Thank you so much for the reply! No, I'm not a home student but I will consider other options.

Well I'm sure that I saw that Stirling has some really good funding options for international students and the tution fee at Strathclyde is the same for international and home!
