This module will be a compulsory work-based module on the MSc Digital and Technology Solutions Professional level 7 degree apprenticeship. It will provide degree students with the methodological skills to manage a project related to big data, both in terms of managing time/schedule, as well as in terms of tools and technologies (which are covered in more technical detail in other modules). It will encompass the whole pipeline of the data analysis process, including obtaining and checking data, its analysis, and the evaluation of the results, including the potential feedback loop to evolve/improve the various steps of the process. Students will rely on data from their own workplace context and apply the methodology taught in this module to illustrate the importance of managing the whole pipeline for making the best possible use of data and big data techniques.
