Summary

Geospatial analysis is being radically changed by embedding data science and data analytics into the discipline. Rather than a human being looking at data and images of the Earth, artificial intelligence is being increasingly deployed to automate tasks that humans cannot otherwise accomplish in any reasonable amount of time. Nationally, there is a widely recognised shortage of qualified Artificial Intelligence (AI) and data scientists to meet the needs of industry. This course will equip you with the skills and professional insight needed to launch a career in this fast-growing sector.

As a conversion degree, you do not need a science background. And the knowledge you gain will help you build a portfolio that will launch you into the field of data science, acquiring highly sought after skills that will greatly enhance your career pathway. The programme will cover topics such as, programming, statistics, machine learning, data visualisation and computer vision and the ethical and legal responsibilities of using data. This geospatial data analysis variant will include bespoke modules covering the fundamentals of geo-information science and earth observation, and spatio-temporal big data analytics.

In the third semester, you will have the opportunity to choose or design their own research project in a disciplinary area which may relate to their background or career goals. Alternatively, there may also be opportunity to undertake a project working with an industry partner.
