Healthcare is increasingly shaped by data science, artificial intelligence and digital technologies. From electronic health records and wearable devices to AI-assisted diagnostics and public health monitoring, healthcare systems now generate vast amounts of data with enormous potential to improve patient care and health outcomes. As the use of healthcare data and AI continues to expand, there is growing demand for professionals who can analyse, interpret and communicate complex information responsibly and effectively. This programme is specifically designed for students who may not have previous quantitative training but are motivated to develop expertise in health data science and artificial intelligence. Through a supportive and carefully structured learning experience, students progressively build confidence in statistics, coding, computational methods and data analysis. The programme combines core foundations in statistics, programming and health data science with opportunities to explore specialist areas including machine learning, artificial intelligence, prediction modelling and healthcare evaluation. Designed around flexibility and student support, the programme allows students to tailor their studies around their own interests and future career ambitions while developing highly valued analytical, computational and professional skills. The programme also has strong links with the Civic Health Innovation Labs (CHIL), an internationally recognised multidisciplinary research centre based at the University of Liverpool. CHIL brings together experts from academia, the NHS, local government, charities and industry to develop responsible approaches to data use and AI for health and society. Graduates from the programme are well placed for careers across healthcare, digital health, public health, research and healthcare innovation, with opportunities continuing to grow rapidly both within the UK and internationally. Why study this programme Build confidence in a supportive learning environment This programme is designed specifically for students transitioning into health data science from a wide range of backgrounds.
