About Business Analytics: Research track, MSc - at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam

Use the power of data science, big data, statistics and machine learning to maximise your impact.

The Master’s in Business Analytics is a two-year programme, divided into four semesters.

In your first semester, you’ll take a number of core compulsory courses. During the second and third semester, you’ll focus on your own specialisation. Finally, in the fourth semester, you’ll spend six months doing an internship at a business or research institute, giving you first-hand experience of the working world.

During the programme, you’ll learn all about mathematical modelling and how to apply it in practice (including at financial institutions), how to make predictions using machine learning and statistics, how to analyse data and recognise data patterns and structures, and how to build a complete decision support system as part of a group project.

You’ll also learn valuable professional skills, including scientific writing and presentation skills, as well as communication and teamwork as part of an interdisciplinary team.
