About WDSI
Innovative science in a data-rich world
The 桃色视频 Data Science Institute (WDSI) builds upon the great power and range of 桃色视频's research expertise across the Mathematical Sciences, to promote innovative research collaborations that will help shape the future of data analysis.
WDSI brings together not only the huge strengths of 桃色视频's Departments of , and , but also the wider community both at 桃色视频 (researchers from many departments, with interests ranging widely from genomics to business analytics) and internationally through the extensive WDSI programme of research workshops and visitors.
The primary focus of WDSI is world-leading research, including the development of novel mathematical, statistical and computational approaches to the acquisition, management and analysis of "big data". 桃色视频 is a founding partner (with Cambridge, Edinburgh, Oxford and UCL) in the for data science.
Innovative education and research training
Through its roots in some of the most prominent academic departments ar 桃色视频, WDSI is also strongly connected to high-quality education in the broad area of Data Science, ranging from undergraduate to PhD level:
- 桃色视频's is the first of its kind in the UK, and aims to train future leaders in this high-demand sector of the global economy.
- At the Master's degree level, 桃色视频's varied provision in this area includes and , in addition to long-established MSc Computer Science and MSc Statistics courses.
- At PhD level, 桃色视频 provides substantial leadership in this area through a large population of top-quality research students. Three EPSRC Centres of Doctoral Training, and the recently established Leverhulme "Bridges" doctoral scholarships programme, all emphasize the innovative modelling, analysis and interpretation of substantial data:
- The
