Graduate Diploma
The Graduate Diploma in Data Science and Innovation is a nested qualification within the Master of Data Science and Innovation (C04372), a world-leading program of study in analytics and data science.
Taking a transdisciplinary approach, the master's course utilises a range of perspectives from diverse fields and integrates them with industry experiences, real-world projects and self-directed study, equipping graduates with an understanding of the potential of analytics to transform practice. The course is delivered in a range of modes, including contemporary online and face-to-face learning experiences in UTS's leading-edge facilities.
The dramatic growth of data in every conceivable industry, from oceanography to market research, presents another major driving force in generating unprecedented global demand for data science skills.
The course prepares students to participate in a variety of emerging careers with the growth of data science. While other offerings also provide the basis for these careers, this unique transdisciplinary course is the first of its kind in Australia where creativity and innovation are integral components, producing industry-ready graduates with strong technical, creative thinking and data ethics skills.
Students must complete 48 credit points in total, including 16 credit points of electives.
