COURSE DESCRIPTION
The analytics revolution has fundamentally changed business. The Business Analytics major will provide you with the knowledge and skills needed to participate in and indeed, lead the revolution.
Learn how analytics is applied to all areas of business from improving business decision-making and organisational processes to strategy-making.
The courses in this major cover the powerful tools used by business analysts and data scientists, including data visualisation, predictive and prescriptive analytics, and machine learning and deep learning. You’ll also look at case studies from across the applied business disciplines, including accounting, finance, human resource management and marketing.
Learning how to solve real problems, the project-based capstone within the Business Analytics major uses live case studies from participating businesses. Working closely with academic support and industry decision-makers, you’ll work on a project and write and present your project findings to an audience including industry representatives.
