Introduction
What can the Master offer you?
We are immersed in a great revolution. The incredible development in recent years of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning and Deep Learning algorithms, access to enormous volumes of information of all kinds, in which everything can be data (texts, images, audios, videos) and The democratization of access to analysis tools is permeating the entire economic, business and social ecosystem.
Today, decision-making in the environment of businesses, organizations and Public Administrations cannot be understood if they are not based on evidence and the support of sophisticated analysis models that allow patterns and relationships to be extracted to obtain value from the data. data and information. And this is just the beginning.
Do you want to understand this revolution and be part of it or stay behind without understanding the present? The Master's Degree in Business Analytics provides you with the knowledge and skills necessary to understand this world of data and models, know their practical application in different contexts and economic and business areas and know how to apply it to the resolution of real problems, building and applying your own models. Being able to have dialogue and bridge between the business field and the technical field.
