Diagnostics, Data and Digital Health

Entry requirements

A minimum 2:1 undergraduate UK Honours degree or equivalent international qualification, in a physical sciences, life sciences, biological sciences, medical sciences, mathematics, computer sciences, engineering or another relevant subject.

Please note that applicants will need post A2 Level (or equivalent) knowledge in Mathematics, covering topics such as linear algebra, calculus and analysis, and including differential equations. This could be gained through a mathematics module taken as part of an undergraduate course. It is expected that candidates have a good understanding of these topics at the start of their MSc studies.

You can see how your current degree score or GPA equates to the British system in our Study pages in the Equivalent scores table.

We are willing to consider applications from students with lower qualifications on a case-by-case basis, particularly when the applicant can evidence relevant employment, practical experience or strong performance in undergraduate modules related to their proposed postgraduate course of study.

To ensure you have the essential foundations for the course, and depending on your overall academic profile, we may require you to take a mathematical skills test.

Course content

Technological advances, increased expectations for medicine, longer life expectancy along with legal, ethical and economic factors have led to a vast expansion in medical imaging and diagnostics. There is an increasing need for digital healthcare solutions to meet the changing needs and expectations of patients.

Our MSc Diagnostics, Data and Digital Health will train students in the theory and practical implementation of cutting-edge diagnostic and imaging technologies and expose them to established, as well as emerging, applications using data science, artificial intelligence and machine learning.

This course is part of the University’s flagship ‘Science for Sustainable Futures’ portfolio – an interdisciplinary initiative designed to address global challenges through innovative education. With core material delivered by leading experts from the School of Engineering, Warwick Medical School, and WMG, the course offers a truly cross-disciplinary experience. By learning across traditional subject boundaries and honing both critical thinking and practical skills, students will gain the advanced knowledge and applied insight sought after by industry leaders and employers across sectors.

After graduation students will be well equipped for further study (PhD) in areas of critical scientific and technological importance, or for employment in a broad range of industries such as diagnostics and pharmaceutical industries, life science and clinical trials companies, health-tech SMEs, and research organisations.

The MSc can be studied part-time over two years to suit those in employment. PG Diploma and Certificate options are also available for those who would like to take a subset of modules.
