This programme is designed to help you specialise quickly and develop as an expert in data analysis from the very first year of the Master’s cycle. SCBS is one of the few schools to offer this opportunity so early on.
In your second year, you deepen this path by hyper-specialising in this field. The Data Analytics track combines theory and practice in order to prepare you effectively for entry into the workforce, whether through a work-study placement or the various internships offered within the classic track.

The specialisation Data Analytics
Reliable analytics begins well before modelling: organisations must acquire, clean, structure and govern data before insights can be deployed securely. The rapid growth of AI and big-data roles increases demand for professionals who combine coding, statistics, database skills and an understanding of privacy, bias and operational constraints.
This pathway develops end-to-end analytical capability, from data engineering and exploration to machine learning, visualisation and the delivery of reproducible decision-support solutions.
