According to IBM, one in three business leaders don’t know how to take the data generated by their company and turn it into meaningful intelligence. This worrying gap in knowledge is already costing companies money and it’s only going to get worse as big data becomes more and more important, so it’s no surprise that companies are actively seeking graduates with the skills and ability to handle large amounts of data.
Demand for big data staff is set to increase by up to 23 percent per annum over the next five years, so studying an Online MBA program with a Data Analytics component promises to offer fantastic career opportunities and return on investment. These programs ensure you supplement core business theory with an understanding of the entire lifecycle of big data and how you can use it to gain leverage or a competitive advantage.
To find out more about what it’s like to study this specialization, we spoke to Nottingham Trent University (NTU) about their Online MBA with Data Analytics program.
Who’s it for?
Nottingham Trent University’s program is designed for high-performing middle managers with a minimum of three years’ supervisory professional experience and a 2.1 degree or equivalent qualification.
What does it involve?
Alongside the ten core business modules, students will study four data analytics modules covering statistical decision-making, big data, machine learning and how to derive innovation and value from large amounts of data. Students at NTU learn how to exploit data to inform their strategic business decisions developed through contemporary theories and frameworks.
