Business Analytics

This programme is for students who would like to solve business problems through quantitative data analytics. Organisations today realise that data analytics is a critical competitive capability to survive in the new era of Big Data and Artificial Intelligence.

Applicants must hold a minimum of a bachelor's degree (NFQ Level 8) (or equivalent) with a minimum of a second-class honours, grade 2 (2:2) in a discipline which includes quantitative techniques as part of the degree (including the ability to undertake statistical analysis of data). Examples of such degrees include business studies, management science, economics, finance, accounting, engineering, mathematics, physics, computer science and other sciences. Please note that this degree is quantitative in nature and therefore applicants do need to have a basic level of quantitative capabilities, hence the requirement for a degree with modules that have a quantitative element within them. Applicants who do not hold a primary degree but has at least 10 years relevant work experience may apply via Maynooth University's RPL process for Non-Standard Entrants.
