Overview

We offer a Health Data Science degree at University of Oxford. The Oxford EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT) in Health Data Science offers a four-year doctoral programme, beginning with the training year, which consists of two terms of intensive training in core data science principles and techniques followed by a third term where students undertake two 8-week research placements in two of their chosen research areas.

Features

It is expected that one of these projects will become the basis of the student’s doctoral research, carried out in the following three years.
Research groups in partner departments address related challenges in data science: machine learning, knowledge representation, healthcare economics and cyber security.
