modules

This module will allow you to apply the knowledge learned in other modules in a significant data science project.

 

A data science project may take years, and not all projects experience a full life cycle, sometimes being abandoned for cost reasons or change of business strategy. The project is designed to demonstrate the application of knowledge and skills as it would in the Data Science occupation. It collates the raw unsynthesised research findings and demonstrates analysis (statistical and scientific), synthesis, evaluation, literature review and produces recommendations for the business to consider. The report is a significant and complex project in itself and thoroughly tests both higher and lower order knowledge and skills.

 

The project report must be based on a real research project carried out in the employer’s workplace as part of the apprentice’s day to day activities.
