Overview

Master of Data Analytics - Biomedical Data Science

This course at QUT will prepare you for a future-focused career in the fast-paced, ever-changing world of data analytics. 

Biomedical Data Science

Biology and medicine are becoming increasingly data-intensive in research and clinical practice. 

From new sequencing technologies to medical imaging and electronic health records to wearable devices recording heart rate, generating biomedical data has never been easier or cheaper.

Yet, these datasets may be large and complex, making the observations noisy. 

This interdisciplinary major provides the skills to 'wrangle' and analyse biomedical data. 

You will learn statistical and machine learning methods and use them to identify relationships and gain insight into function and disease states while gaining some understanding of their limitations and the complexity of the problems that arise. 

Real-world learning

This course is designed to meet industry needs specifically. 

QUT has combined expertise in statistics, computer science, and business process management disciplines to deliver real-world learning opportunities.

You'll:

  • build a significant project-based experience that allows you to apply your analytical skills to complex problem domains constructively
  • experience using high-order thinking strategies within data-rich contexts through the synthesis of multiple sources of information
  • apply specialist abstraction and synthesis techniques to solve complex data analytics problems inspired by real-world scenarios.
