The difficulty often depends on your background in quantitative subjects and your willingness to engage with the material. However, many find it rewarding and manageable with the right preparation.

The specialised programme prepares graduates for the roles that requires strong analytical skills in addition to business acumen.

Graduates can find opportunities in a wide range of industries including:

• Finance
• Healthcare
• E-commerce
• Consulting
• Technology
• Retail

An MBA in Data Analytics equips you with both technical and managerial skills enhancing your ability to interpret data and make strategic decisions. This combination prepares you for leadership roles increases your employability and positions you for promotions in data-driven organizations.

While a background in coding can be beneficial, it is not strictly necessary. Many programs are designed to accommodate students from various backgrounds.
