Business Intelligence: Master Programme

Utbildningsfakta

Kod: DBIMA

The Business Intelligence (BI) Programme provides students with an intensive and broad education in data analysis, information modelling and decision-making, which are key components in the so-called BI chain. The programme integrates the most important components from Microdata Analysis with knowledge about the analysis of information systems using statistical principles. The design aims to develop the ability of students to meet increasing global challenges in their careers and to give them competence and capacity from advanced data analysis research to enterprise management. In the programme, students take courses relating to BI and Big Data. Students receive training in the analysis of business data using both statistical methods and computer methods in a BI context. Furthermore, the programme addresses issues relating to data collection and data quality. By the end of the programme, students will have taken courses on how different types of BI technologies can be used in organisations. The programme comprises courses that teach students practical skills in how to collect, store, and analyse data. In the second semester, students write their Master’s thesis. The semester begins with students formulating a basic outline for their thesis work. In the plan, a problem is identified and a research outcome is formulated. The plan must describe how the problem is to be solved and what material the work will be based on, as well as how access to this can be assured. In addition, the plan outlines what the student needs to learn to be able to complete the thesis. The plan is presented to a supervisory group. Students complete their thesis in the second semester. The thesis work can be methodological in nature and contribute to the development of methods and techniques within the field of microdata analysis. It can also be practical in nature and aim to strengthen the BI chain of an organisation or improve it in some form.
