Health Education England (HEE) have commissioned the University of Manchester to develop a flexible, postgraduate Clinical Data Science Programme in collaboration with the National School of Healthcare Science.

The Clinical Data Science Programme aims to empower healthcare professionals to apply data science in practice and translate data into patient benefit.

The course is being designed to help healthcare professionals:

  • build digital and data capabilities and confidence
  • learn to work better with data centric professionals on digital transformation and research projects
  • develop data-based solutions to clinical problems
  • develop fundamental data science skills for processing, analysing and communicating with data

The programme will be available for full-time (over 1 year) and part-time (over 2 years) delivery, and all units will be available as individual CPD units.

The PG Cert in Clinical Data Science offers blended teaching that will provide a rich mixture of online and face-to-face learning opportunities.

To apply for a funded place, applicants need to:

  • apply for a place on the programme via the the University of Manchester website and
  • apply for HEE funding

Applicants wishing to be considered for a funded place will need to submit an application to both the University and HEE by 23.59 on Sunday 30 April 2023. Applications to the University will remain open after this date for those interested in the course who may be self-funded, funded through other means or not eligible for the HEE funding.
