Description
The Data Lab students will join the most extensive and
innovative scholarship programme in Scotland. Following two
successful years, The Data Lab will be expanding their MSc scholarship
programme to 130 students for 2017/18.
The third cohort of MSc programmes include
collaborations with 11 universities from across Scotland including Aberdeen,
Dundee, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Stirling and the West of Scotland.
Students will have the opportunity to complete a paid
three-month industrial placement for their dissertation project. Through these
projects, students get the chance to apply their learnt skills to life problems
and get familiar with the working world.
As part of The Data Lab MSc, student’s receive
additional technical and ‘business-ready’ skills training and we also
run a year-long data competition for all students. This comprises a series
of hackathons that allows students to apply their data science skills using
real datasets from Scottish organisation.

eligible to have your tuition fees paid in full through this scheme.
