Since its inception 20 years ago, business intelligence (BI) has become a huge industrial area and a significant driver of the economy. It covers many fields of science and technology (data warehousing and mining, content analysis, business process management, etc.) and requires knowledge of information systems, the Web, decision making, software engineering, innovation and entrepreneurship. The Erasmus Mundus master's degree in Big Data Management and Analytics (BDMA) , formerly the master's degree in Information Technologies for Business Intelligence (IT4BI), coordinated by the Université Libre de Bruxelles (ULB) and with the UPC as a participant, provides students with the comprehensive training required for them to understand, learn and acquire BI skills and develop decision-making strategies for business.
