About this program

The Bachelor of Applied Data Analytics at Adelaide University covers statistical analysis, programming, data management, and information retrieval—skills at the centre of decision-making across industries. You’ll study topics such as data mining, machine learning, database systems, and data visualisation. Mathematical reasoning and communication of data insights are addressed through project-based and practical learning.

This is a three-year degree structured in semesters. Students complete a set number of units of study, each earning credit points that count toward the total required to graduate. The course often includes industry-relevant projects and may offer work-integrated learning, depending on availability, giving you direct experience with employers in Adelaide and across Australia.

Graduates leave able to write code for data projects, perform statistical modelling, and interpret complex datasets in meaningful ways. Skills in programming languages such as Python or R, and knowledge of data ethics and privacy, are built in unit by unit. This course suits strong analytical thinkers interested in using data to solve real-world problems—no previous experience with coding is necessary, but an interest in maths and computers helps.

English language proficiency is required for international applicants, and work rights allow students to work up to 48 hours per fortnight while studying. After graduation, eligible students can apply for the Temporary Graduate visa (subclass 485) post-study work stream, which supports transition into the workforce.
