About this program

The Master of Business Analytics at Edith Cowan University in Perth is structured around advanced studies in how data shapes business decision-making. Students focus on interpreting data, statistical modelling, and practical analytics tools while exploring topics like business intelligence, predictive analytics, and information systems. The course is aimed at those interested in the intersection of business and technology and is suitable both for recent graduates and professionals seeking to upgrade analytical skills.

The degree is typically completed over two years full-time, following the Australian master's structure of units of study and credit points (full details are available on the official university site). Units may be offered across semesters. Students often have the option to engage in work-integrated learning, involving real business projects or practical placements in collaboration with Australian companies, ensuring exposure to local industry standards.

An important component is the opportunity to complete a capstone project, where skills in analytics and business strategy come together on practical challenges. Graduates gain abilities in data analysis, visualisation, business modelling, and effective communication of analytics insights to stakeholders.

This degree suits those who want to work with business data, and may appeal to those from IT, business, maths or statistics backgrounds. It is also of interest to international students, with the institution accepting IELTS, TOEFL, PTE, Cambridge and its own English programs as proof of language proficiency. While studying, international students can work up to 48 hours per fortnight, and graduates may be eligible for the Temporary Graduate visa (subclass 485).
