Course content

Are you looking to complement your undergraduate studies with a business-focused master’s degree that will enhance your employability? Do you want to explore the latest techniques for analysing ‘big data’ in order to improve an organisation’s decision making? This course develops broad business skills while also offering a specialist pathway in business analytics that starts after the first semester.

Specialist modules cover topics like business intelligence and marketing metrics so you can delve into the topics that interest you most. The course culminates in either a master’s dissertation or, if you prefer, a consultancy project where you’ll tackle an issue faced by a real client. The project will require you to link theory to practice while simultaneously honing your employability skills. Throughout the course there’s a focus on self-development and employability so you'll develop the skills you need to stand out in the business world.

The course is covered by the prestigious AACSB accreditation for Newcastle Business School, which was ‘Business School of the Year’ at The Times Higher Education Awards 2015 so you'll also benefit from a first-class teaching environment.
