Amy - MSc Health Data Science student
"Whilst the Health Data Science MSc course is still relatively new, it is clear to me that all of the teaching staff take pride in the course, display a lot of enthusiasm and often are teaching us their own research, which goes to show how excellent the teaching staff are in their fields of work. The module leads care a lot about the students on my course and are always keen to help with any concerns, this has created a great learning environment."
