4-Term Pathway - Pre-Master's for Science and Engineering - Continue to Master of Science - Big Data and High Performance Computing

The MSc Big Data and High Performance Computing provides students with an in-depth understanding of big data analysis and processing using high performance computing technology. This MSc programme enables students to gain a sought after qualification in areas of computing in great demand worldwide. There is an employment gap looming in the field of big data, especially in the context of the skills required with respect to the application of High Performance Computing (HPC) capabilities to address big data problems.

The MSc Big Data and High Performance Computing programme is designed to address this skills gap and provide those completing the programme with the ability to efficiently address big data and HPC challenges. Together with Liverpool's growing industrial contact and engagements, this places graduates in a prime position for future employment. The programme is organized as two taught semesters followed by an individual project undertaken over either the summer or, if desired, during the following year of study.
