MSc/PgDip Business Analysis & Consulting

The MSc in Business Analysis & Consulting has been developed to equip you with the practical, evaluative and analytical skills to allow you, as a future manager or consultant, to influence and build strategy and performance within organisations. 

You'll learn the critical quantitative business analysis methods necessary to evaluate performance. 

Industry involvement is at the heart of the course. You'll have numerous external clients throughout the year in your experiential learning class and have the opportunity to undertake your summer project in collaboration with an external organisation.

In addition, you'll learn how to use business models to support the development of strategy for organisations and to help them to monitor and measure strategic processes. 

By the end of the programme, you'll have developed the critical skills of business consulting, which apply to any organisation.
