The Postgraduate Diploma in Applied Social Data Science is a one-year, full-time programme which introduces students to fundamentals in quantitative social science research methods and state-of-the-art analytic approaches from the fields of statistics and machine learning. Graduates of the course will acquire a rich repertoire of social scientific research design skills grounded in the scientific method and data analytic methods that are widely sought after in the private, public, and non-profit sectors.

Applicants will be expected to hold an upper second-class Honours (2.1) degree or higher from an established university.

A background in a social science discipline or computer science, statistics, or other related discipline will be an advantage but is not required.
