Study MBA (Global) and Science (Data Analytics)

Around the world, data analytics is increasingly utilised to inform and drive business decisions at an operational and strategic level in a broad range of industries such as finance, health and medicine, general sciences, cybersecurity, defence and agriculture.

Driven by the changing requirements of businesses and government and the skills gap for employees with both business and data analytics qualifications, the University of Newcastle has introduced the Master of Business Administration (Global) and Master of Science (Data Analytics) combined degree.

This program will provide you with the essential knowledge and professional skills to understand and employ appropriate analytics on big data generated from different business processes, across different types of organisations and industries.

Furthermore, this program will help you cultivate a global mindset, providing a comprehensive understanding of the impact of business globalization on stakeholders, societies, and economies. You will not only learn to model real-world scenarios but also develop the ability to think abstractly and adeptly manipulate, analyse, and interpret data.
