This degree is designed to prepare you for a career in this fast-paced and challenging sector. By completing the programme, you will build a portfolio of materials that can be presented to employers, enabling you to demonstrate your development and appropriateness for roles in the business analytics field. This portfolio will include business simulation and analytics applications.

The program is designed to provide research led experiential learning in the field of business analytics. It meets the demand of growing employment opportunities created by digital innovation, digital transformation and the emergence of big data and its associated dynamics and analytical challenges.
