Curriculum offered for BA&O Master's students
As a result of the digital transformation, intelligent business models require companies to analyze the?data available to them in the best possible way?and to use the data to?organize their processes optimally. Think about online service platforms for passenger transport, car sharing concepts, or the combination of mail order and stationary retailing. Production is being made fit for the future under the keyword?Industry 4.0. With?Health 4.0,?a comparable revolution in the health care system is imminent.
?
In the?Business Analytics & Operations cluster, you will learn how to generate and statistically evaluate relevant data, optimize decisions by using quantitative methods, design sustainable processes, and thus create competitive advantages in various industries.
