This is Analytics

making better business decisions through data

The ability to interpret data and use it to drive business growth is key to organisations of all sizes. Our new analytics programmes have been designed to give you the skills you'll need to launch a career in this dynamic and fast-growing area.

We'll give you the technical and non-technical skills and the business insight required to fully unlock the potential of data analytics.

Both of our programmes give you the opportunity for a placement year in industry, where you'll apply and refine all you've learnt in a business setting while gaining priceless experience and building contacts.

We are one of the few universities in the world to hold the 'triple-crown' of accreditations: AACSB, AMBA and EQUIS.

We have created an environment of world-leading management education and research where everyone can flourish and make a difference to the world.

This is where I use data to help people

"I chose the University of Bradford because of two reasons. The first one is because of how welcoming it actually was at my Open Day. It made a huge difference to me as a person. And then I found out about the 'triple-crown' accreditation. It literally means top-quality teaching. It's how valuable and top-class the teaching is."

Where data analytics can take you

The career paths open to data analytics graduates are exciting and varied. There are an ever-increasing number of job opportunities in the sector, often commanding highly attractive wages. However, the number of skilled digital data professionals is not keeping up with demand, and organisations can have real difficulties recruiting staff who can both interpret data and apply the findings effectively.

Potential career specialisms include:

  • Operations Analyst
  • Data Scientist
  • Data Analytics Consultant
  • Digital Marketing Manager
  • Logistics Specialist
  • Business Development Manager
  • Audit Analyst

We'll help you gain the skills you'll need beyond university as part of your course, with initiatives such as our Career Booster Programme helping give you the edge in a competitive graduate job market.

We also place great emphasis on entrepreneurship, and will give you the knowledge and support you need to launch your own enterprise if that is the path you wish to take during your studies or after graduation.
