Bachelor of Science in Data Science

About this programme

Data Science is the science of learning from data, and it sits at the heart of an organisation's decision-making process. Data Science at Otago is dynamic and hands-on, teaching you to extract meaning and insight from data to support decisions across a wide range of fields. You'll build the statistical, computational and communication skills needed to turn raw data into evidence that organisations can act on.

Entry requirements

• International students need a secondary-school qualification recognised as equivalent to New Zealand University Entrance. Widely accepted qualifications include Cambridge International A-levels (typically at least 120 NZ Tariff points), the IB Diploma (minimum 24 points), and many recognised national qualifications assessed country-by-country. Applicants who do not meet direct entry can qualify through a foundation-year programme or one year of study at an institution of university standing. Some programmes require specific subjects, and a satisfactory level of English is required.
