Overview

Master of Data Science

Data Science is an inter-disciplinary field, drawing on mathematics, statistics, and computer science, that uses scientific methods, processes, algorithms and systems to extract knowledge and insights from structured and unstructured data.

This course provides the necessary foundations in the disciplines of mathematics, statistics and computer science, and develops student knowledge and skills in some of the key tools and techniques relevant to data science. 

It also pays specific attention to ethical issues surrounding the manner in which data is gathered, stored and analysed/utilised.

Data Science is a significant area of growth and potential employment in Australia and the Asia-Pacific region.

Work Experience option

The final semester of the course is entirely centered on an industry relevant project or a work integrated learning (WIL) experience. 

Attendance requirements

Students enrolled in the WIL unit CSI6223 will be expected to attend a workplace on a full-time basis for the entire teaching semester.

The Academic English Program (AEP) is designed for students who plan to study at an Australian university or who are interested in developing academic reading, writing, listening and communication skills. 

It is taught in 10 week terms, with start dates approximately every five weeks.

It is designed to improve your English and study skills, enabling you to be successful in your diploma and PQP courses at ECC as well as under or postgraduate programs at ECU. 

No further English testing is required (except for Nursing and other higher English course requirements). Therefore, with a minimum of 65%, you are able to graduate to the next AEP level or your designated course.

Applicants must be able to demonstrate their English language proficiency before they enter an ECC program.

English language proficiency can be determined by submitting evidence of Year 12 studies or IELTS Test scores, or Pearson English Test scores or equivalent as shown in the table below.
