Harvard Business Review noted that there will be a shortage of employees with analytics skills in the next 10 years – so our practice oriented MSc will give your career a head start, helping you gain the tools and experience to deliver successful analytical projects in organisations. You will develop key analytical skills and engage in real-world case studies, having the opportunity to complete a real consulting project over the summer. The programme also introduces key consulting skills such as problem structuring, data science, business analytics, spreadsheet modelling and project management. As a key part of the programme, a ‘role-play’ project will allow you to receive feedback on all aspects of the consulting process. The programme can help you build a successful career as an analyst or add a practical skill set to your undergraduate studies in business and management.

This programme has designed to help meet a growing demand for business professionals with analytics skills. Careers support is available from the Student and Graduate Centre for Professional Success which is the central point of contact for connecting students and business. Bringing together employability activities from across Hull University Business School, it offers support such as mentoring, CV writing workshops, and help with working with business through a year in industry or short-term internships and projects.
