We live in a world where analytical decision-making happens every second. Data is collected about everything to construct, operate and maintain systems. If you want a career in data or business analytics, decision support, industrial engineering or management science, our MSc Business Analytics is ideal for you.

This programme will train you in analytical decision-making. Not only do you learn the theory of business analytics, but also how to apply it in practice. This involves generating relevant business insights using data-driven methodologies and tools. Our programme is one of the few to teach the entire business analytics life cycle, covering descriptive, predictive and prescriptive analytics.

We have excellent partnerships with business analytics practitioners working in industry. We constantly update this programme to reflect the dynamically changing landscape of business analytics. We place a very strong emphasis on giving you skills that are valuable in the job market. You can complete an analytics project that solves a real-life problem as part of the programme.

Lancaster University is a pioneer of analytics in the UK and Europe. We were one of the first universities in the UK to establish an Operational Research department, which developed into the Department of Management Science. For more than 50 years, we have been at the forefront of applying analytics to business in teaching and research.

Our academics are leaders in fields such as forecasting, optimisation, simulation and stochastic modelling. You will learn technical aspects like machine learning and data mining. We also have expertise in logistics and supply chain analytics, healthcare analytics, sports analytics, network analytics, marketing analytics and pricing analytics.
