Bachelor of Applied Data Analytics

For decision-makers, data is gold. But only if it can be interpreted accurately. All around the world, in every industry, employers are seeking true data analysts - professionals with not only statistical expertise, but the ability to 'see' new solutions in oceans of numbers. Our Bachelor of Applied Data Analytics will help you step into this critical role in one of seven specialist areas: agriculture, bioinformatics, economics, environment, geosciences, physics, or public health.

What will you do?

The degree is unique in Australia, in combining big-data analytics training with decision science. In addition to acquiring a firm grounding in data handling and management, you'll gain high-level skills in:

• advanced data analysis

• statistical inference, including using machine learning

• developing new models of complex problems

• quantitative decision-making

• applying data analysis to develop organisational strategies for sustainable success

You'll also undertake a significant research project in your final year.

Where could it take you?

You'll be well equipped to help organisations in your chosen area of specialisation identify opportunities for improvement and growth. You could work in government, consultancies or large corporations, at home or abroad. Or perhaps you'll apply your knowledge to drive decision-making in a venture of your own.
