Master Programme

Master of Business Analytics (MBAn)

The Michigan Ross Master of Business Analytics is a 10-month, 36.5-credit program that balances data analytics with business fundamentals. It starts in June with data programming, advanced spreadsheets, probability and statistics and a business immersion. The fall term covers predictive analytics, data visualisation, data architecture, unsupervised learning, causal inference, accounting, decision strategies and project management, and the winter brings prescriptive analytics, information security and ethics, electives and a consulting studio with a real sponsor organisation.
