The National University of Singapore will launch the Master of Technology in Enterprise Business Analytics next January at the Institute of Systems Science (ISS).

The multi-disciplinary programme taught by enterprise practitioners is aimed at increasing the number of skilled business analytics professionals in the industry, said NUS in a statement.

Designed for new and entry-level practitioners, the programme is suited for participants who wish to upgrade their skills. Both 16-month full-time and 28-month part-time programmes are available.

There will be 15 technical courses, covering advanced analytics, campaign management and software metrics and process improvement. A team-based practicum project where students work with organisations in the IT, logistics and transport sectors is also woven into the programme.
