PgCert Data Analytics at Queen's University Belfast

Entry requirements

Normally a 2:2 honours degree in Mathematics, Statistics, Computer Science, Computer Applications or a closely related discipline, or equivalent qualification acceptable to the University. Applicants with a minimum 2:2 in a non-cognate discipline, or who have not yet completed their degree, are considered case by case. Significant mathematical ability is expected (no aptitude test is required; the level is comparable to the Test of Mathematics for University Admission). Applicants without these may be considered with evidence of recent relevant technical experience in industry, for example in programming, data analytics or AI development. Closing date for September 2027 entry for the PgCert is 30 June (later applications considered only if vacancies exist); a deposit is required to secure a place. Recognition of Prior Learning is available. International applicants: IELTS 6.0 overall with no component below 5.5 (taken within the last 2 years), or an equivalent qualification acceptable to the University.
