As more and more companies are investing in data mining for rolling out the best of goods and services, the demand for data analyst has increased manifold.
Keeping this requirement in mind, IIM Ahmedabad has announced the launch of a post graduate programme in Advanced Business Analytics from the next academic session.
The diploma programme will be delivered through a mix of online and offline campus sessions, the institute said in a statement.
The course is geared towards enhancing the analytical problem-solving ability of the students through structured coursework.
The students will be exposed to state-of-the-art data handling tools and techniques, followed by a rigorous and comprehensive coverage of analytical methods and model development techniques, which are immediately applicable to cutting-edge business problems, it said.
“Along with the growth in processing power, we are witnessing the growth of large pools of unstructured data which have embedded information that can be beneficially used for the good of organisations and societies. This course enables those who take it to deploy appropriate methodologies so as to extricate significant information from data and enrich decision making that unlocks value for all stakeholders,” IIM Ahmedabad director Errol D’Souza said.
The programme will be of 16-month duration and the admission process to the course will be similar to other programmes.
