A YORKSHIRE university is offering one of the first degree courses of its kind in the country, to better equip companies to tackle the future.
Data Science is one of the most exciting and eye-opening fields of study in the world today. The York St John University Degree Apprenticeship develops multi-skilled, multi-disciplined data scientists through a programme that helps enhance technical skills, alongside broader business skills such as consultancy, communication, and complex problem solving.
The advanced analysis of data, belonging to complex systems and organisations, means data scientists can see patterns and trends in human behaviour on a scale, and with a level of accuracy, that could not have been contemplated in the past.
From analysing customer behaviour to finding new markets, understanding changing trends, or assessing organisational performance - data scientists have the knowledge at their fingertips to make exciting change happen, helping their companies to be more agile, interesting, and effective.
Jo Burgess, Head of Apprenticeships, York St John University, says: “We love working with companies that are passionate about developing their people. Degree Apprenticeships are a great way to bring learning and earning together.”
All the Degree Apprenticeships are designed in partnership with industry. This means offering the content and flexibility that modern organisations are looking for, supported by cutting-edge academic expertise.
Apprentices learn as they earn, combining employment with designated time for university-based study. On completion, learners will achieve a BSc (Hons) Data Science, and graduate at York Minster.
A growing number of national and international companies are choosing to work with York St John University to explore how Data Science Degree Apprenticeships can transform their workforce talent profile, and ultimately enhance their business.
Whether your company has yet to make the most of its Apprenticeship Levy, or if it’s looking to take the next steps to develop the workforce, speak to York St John University about the way a Data Science Degree Apprenticeship could release your business potential.
