University of Strathclyde, United Kingdom
Save

Course Overview

Business analysis applies advanced analytical methods to business problems to help managers make better decisions.

Technology is at the heart of all modern business.

Organisations need business graduates with expertise in business technology. Business analysts have an excellent general awareness of how a business works. They can also apply advanced analytical methods to deal with specific management issues.

Following the recent global economic crisis, economics is more important and relevant than ever. Decisions on money, banking, interest rates, taxation and government spending affect us all, with global consequences.

Economics aims to understand the activities of the different economic agents – consumers, producers and the government – and how they all fit together.

Our degree will allow you to explain complex data in simple terms to different audiences. You’ll also develop excellent mathematical, statistical and problem-solving skills.
