About Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Business Data Analytics (Placement Year)
Program Description
The field of data analytics is becoming increasingly more relevant and important. Insight-driven businesses are said to be growing at an average of more than 30 per cent each year, creating a demand for professionals skilled in data analytics.
This course provides a broad understanding of information systems coupled with in-depth exploration of analytics knowledge and concepts to help students derive valuable information and insights from data. The course covers a range of subjects to prepare for a career in the sector, and benefits from insight from De Montfort University's internationally-renowned research institutes, embedding ethics and the impact of computing and technology within the modules.
Professionalism within an industry context is emphasized throughout, with strong links to BCS, The Chartered Institute for IT. Students are exposed to industry-standard concepts, tools and technologies, exploring the fundamental underlying principles of data analytics. De Montfort University's teaching staff contribute to the field through internationally-recognised research or industrial consultancy, and many are members of centres that pioneer cutting-edge research.
On graduating from this course, students are equipped with the skills needed for successful careers in industry or academia, as competent and independent lifelong learners. The programme will prepare students for careers in fields such as data and systems analysis and design, system, security, project and knowledge management, big data architect roles, data consultant roles and business consultancy.
Key features:
- Gain an industry-recognised qualification and a skill set sought by employers across the industry.
- Learn from computing experience built over more than 50 years, a long-standing history allowing students to draw on a wealth of research and academic expertise.
- Through block teaching, students will focus on one subject at a time instead of several at once. This means that students will be able to focus closely on each subject and absorb their learning material in more depth, whilst working more closely with their tutors and course mates.
- The computer science and engineering and technology subjects have scored highly in the Times Higher Education’s 2020 World University Rankings, meaning students can benefit from the outstanding level of research, teaching and learning on offer at De Montfort University.
- Develop practical skills in De Montfort University's specialist facilities, with 100 computer workstations on campus divided into five interconnected laboratories, each with 20 high-specification PCs running Windows/Linux.
- Enhance employability and gain industry experience by undertaking an optional work placement. Previous students have benefited from placements at leading organisations including at Hewlett-Packard, Intel Corporation, Thomson Reuters, E.ON, GlaxoSmithKline, TNT Express, and AstraZeneca.
