- View entry table
- Career Opportunities
- With a double degree in Data Science and Decisions/Law you will blend mathematical methods, statistics, computing, business decisions and communication with Law to train you for one of the most in-demand and lucrative careers in the world. Data science is playing an increasingly important and controversial role in legal practice and the legal system more broadly. Risk assessment tools (based on data analysis) are being used in the United States and other jurisdictions as a relevant consideration in bail, sentencing and parole decisions. Machine learning is also used for electronic discovery in civil matters as well as in the estimation of damages and costs that are crucial variables in decisions as to whether to settle a claim. However, the number of lawyers with expertise across both domains is small. This has implications for the delivery of justice as inappropriate methods are often employed by those who do lack sufficient knowledge of the legal domain. However, it also creates opportunities for those with dual expertise to find better ways to use data science to enhance access to justice, increase rates of settlement, and improve the efficiency of legal practice and the broader legal system. This degree will not only prepare you for a career in the legal profession as a barrister, solicitor or legal executive, but also provide you with the skills to work as a data scientist in the rapidly growing field of data protection and regulation in government and non-governmental organisations.
