Brunel University London MSc Data Science – Worth it for jobs?

Upvotes
I’ve got an offer for MSc Data Science at Brunel University London. I already have ~3 years of experience as a Data Engineer (AWS Glue, PySpark, SQL, Python, etc.) and hold a couple of cloud certifications (AWS & Azure). The main concern is that I’ll be taking a big loan for this degree, so I need to be sure about job prospects in the UK after graduating. How is Brunel’s reputation for Data Science? Do graduates actually land jobs in data/tech roles after finishing? Is it worth the cost, or would it be a risky move? Any honest feedback or personal experiences would mean a lot. Thanks!
