Thank you for your review! I am about to accept their offer and to register for modules. Low teaching quality seems like a common problem for a number of UK taught online masters in computer science related fields (including that from U of York where I was a student). Try the MITx courses and you'll see how much better they are. Thanks again!


Hi there, I am currently applying in Goldsmith Msc Data Science and AI. I am quite confused about the academic and employee references. Is it compulsory for the candidates to supply these 2 documents? I would really appreciate your response.
I would love to reach out to someone directly to ask about this course, which I am very interested in applying for. Is there a discord / reddit channel where I can find students and ask questions?

Hi everyone, I'm about to graduate from UOL with an MSc degree in Data science. For the most part, I enjoyed the program, in addition to that I've learned a lot and the program has a great balance between programming, stats, and theoretical related subjects. of course, there is a lot of room to improve on these subjects. The only downside of being a student at this university is the lack of attention from management and staff. Don't expect them to answer your queries in a short time, it might take weeks to months which is mind-blowing to me. However, i understand where are they coming from, the UK is going thro a lot post-Covid and the increase in interest rates along with inflation, i assume most UK universities are going tho some inner hardships, so i'm kind of cutting some slack on this.

Hello ! I am about to start my study MSc degree in Data at UoL. I would like to ask you about some modules if don't mind. Did you take R for Data Science or Data visualization modules? If yes, What you can tell me about it ? If you know, what would be better for me, knowing I gonna deal with bioinformatics and already have expirience with R

I am also interested in the Data Science and AI course. Can some of you tell some aspects about it? How is the recognition among employers? How is the overall study experience?
