I am a Nigerian national interested in studying M.Sc Data Science in either Coventry University or University of Salford, which should I choose in terms of cost of living, course content, cost of accomodation, ease of getting a job, and other factors.
Please help!

And I'm also considering the University of Hull for the same course.

Any ideas please..?

Hey @Zeal2shine

When choosing a university for your Masters, there are many factors to consider. It seems like you're already on top of it.

If you're interested in finding out more about the course content, we've got you covered! Just head over to our website, and you'll be able to browse through a list of all the modules taught each year here.

Our accommodation partner, Campus Living Villages, offers a range of prices for student halls you can find the most up-to-date prices on their website here.

At our university, we work closely with 'Unitemps' to offer flexible student jobs in Manchester, including on-campus positions. When I was a student, I worked as an usher in the university's theatre part-time.- which was a great opportunity as I was a Theatre student. There are plenty of opportunities available due to our close proximity to Manchester city centre, which is a hub for students and professionals.

If you have any more questions I am more than happy to help.

I am familiar with the course modules, but I am not very comfortable with studying pure Data Science.

My interest would have been aroused if there was a MSc Data Science program that had some essence of Artificial Intelligence in it, because I was wondering to myself, what is the importance of being able to control all that data and make visualisations of it when you cannot use it to make predictions.

Please let me know how versatile it would be to study pure Data Science as the competition is really high and an added knowledge on how to put the data in to good use would an edge for the student.

Thank you for your response
I am looking forward to more engagement from you. I really to like the Salford University facility, but I need to ensure proper value.

Best Regards
