About this program

The Master of Business Analytics (Extension) at the University of Technology Sydney is designed to develop advanced skills in business analytics and decision-making for professionals aspiring to become leaders in data-driven environments. Over two years of full-time study, students undertake a comprehensive suite of units, each attracting credit points as per the Australian qualification framework. The programme explores key themes such as data visualisation, predictive modelling, business intelligence, and advanced computational methods, with integrated case studies set in an Australian context.

Structure comprises core and elective units alongside a capstone experience, where students apply analytical methods to real-world business problems, often collaborating with industry partners in Sydney's vibrant business sector. Typically, courses in this domain are delivered over semesters, emphasising hands-on learning, and may include opportunities for work-integrated learning or professional placements, equipping students to meet workplace demands. Some students may tailor their studies through elective choices, allowing for greater depth in specific analytic methods or industry applications.
