About Business Analytics with an Industrial Placement, MSc - at University of Kent

Business analytics is the process of predicting the needs of an organisation and analysing the effectiveness of past and present activity. This sought-after and growing business discipline is a strategic necessity for any organisation.

Our MSc Business Analytics with Industrial Placement course is delivered by published academics and in collaboration with industry leaders. You'll learn the skills, technologies, applications and practices to become an expert in interpreting and analysing enterprise data effectively.

Taking a 12-month industrial placement allows you to gain work experience in the UK or overseas as part of your Master's. While the placements are self-sought, the School offers support through extra-curricular engagement with our dedicated placements team. Opting for this course with a placement takes the length of your course to up to two years.

Watch our Postgraduate Placements video here.

You'll learn about advanced spreadsheets and systems, Big Data, business statistics with Python and forecasting. You will finish your master's with a detailed report with the support of a dedicated expert supervisor. At the end of Stage One, you start your Industrial Placement.

The course helped me to hone my data-handling skills and to make proper insights on data and leverage them to make decisions for a business.
