Students can apply for the 2-year (full-time) course till November 21st 2021. The course, developed in conjunction with erudite professors of NMIMS university, subject matter experts and industry practitioners, is designed to inculcate data-driven decision making along with managerial training. It caters to the high demand for proficiency in business analytics among management graduates in the current VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous) economy.
The program is expected to meet the high demand for business analytics in the corporate world. It is one of the few careers which has seen minimal impact during the COVID crisis. According to one study, business analytics was one of the most rapidly developing domains in 2019-20 with a 19% growth over the previous year.
Speaking on the high demand for Business Analytics, Dr. Ramesh Bhat, Vice Chancellor of SVKM’s NMIMS University, said, “Business analytics is now prevalent across all sectors, be it manufacturing, e-commerce, BFSI or FMCG. Data is the key metric which can help enterprises evolve and grow. The requirement for Data Analytics professionals is growing at a fast pace with demand far outstripping supply.”
Highlighting the salient features of Business Analytics program, Dr. Sridhar Vaithianathan – Director of Centre of Excellence in Analytics & Data Science, SVKM’s NMIMS, Mumbai said, “Data science – which is considered both the art and science of making data-driven decisions – is playing a significant part in the way businesses function, and it impacts all walks of life. Globally, every organisation has made data science its top priority, but the fact remains that there is a severe dearth of data science skill sets across the world. The well-crafted program delivery is interspersed with contemporary pedagogy, practitioners’ sessions, a learner-centred summer internship program, and more. Capstone projects & hackathons mentored by seasoned experts and dedicated faculty members, data-driven entrepreneurial initiatives in collaboration with Atal Incubation Centre (AIC-NMIMS), along with dedicated placement support makes the programs unmatched.”
To equip students with emerging technologies, the course includes key areas like Information Management, Advanced Analytics, Artificial Intelligence, Visualization and Reporting. As one of the highly sought-after management profiles, an MBA in business analytics can open up opportunities to work in the field of business intelligence, IT business analysis, Financial Analysis, Supply Chain analysis, Market Analysis, and business analysis consultant.
