Overview

Businesses are increasingly collecting large amounts of information about their customers and activities. This ‘big data’ is big news with the media, businesses and government, as they consider how to use this mass of information in a meaningful way.

Analysts interpret and apply this information to make evidence-based business decisions, making them highly sought after by employers in various sectors.

Combining theoretical concepts with practical application, you’ll develop a unique mix of quantitative and behavioural skills relevant to data analysis, effective decision making and management.
