Overview

The Business Analytics programme from the Queen's University Belfast is built around the three core areas needed to succeed in analytics: business knowledge, statistics, and computing.

The increase in the volume, variety, and velocity of data creates opportunities for businesses to improve decision making and develop new data driven products and services.

The programme will include an induction course, where pre-course training in key statistics and computer skills will ensure students from a range of backgrounds have the necessary skills to undertake the course.

Career opportunities

In addition to your degree programme, at Queen's you can have the opportunity to gain wider life, academic and employability skills. For example, placements, voluntary work, clubs, societies, sports and lots more. So not only do you graduate with a degree recognised from a world leading university, you'll have practical national and international experience plus a wider exposure to life overall. We call this Graduate Plus/Future Ready Award. It's what makes studying at Queen's University Belfast special.
