About this course

International business analytics brings together the study of global business with the quantitative and data analytical methods that are reshaping how organisations make decisions. The international business landscape is changing rapidly under the pressure of technological innovation, geopolitical shifts, and the growing volume of data that organisations generate and must interpret. Graduates who can combine rigorous analytical skills with a sophisticated understanding of how firms, governments, and international institutions navigate these changes are in growing demand across the private and public sectors.

At Queen Mary University of London, this four-year full-time programme equips you to become the kind of expert that Queen Mary describes firms, governments, and international institutions as desperately needing: someone who can analyse markets and economies, assess trends and developments, and translate quantitative insight into strategic decisions. You will develop skills in data analysis, econometrics, financial modelling, and statistical methods alongside knowledge of international trade, strategy, and the economic and political environments in which global business operates. Queen Mary's location in London and its connections to the financial, commercial, and policy communities there provide a rich professional context for the degree.

Graduates in international business analytics go on to careers in management consultancy, financial analysis, economic consultancy, market research, government economic analysis, and data and analytics roles in international firms. The combination of quantitative rigour and international business understanding is particularly well suited to organisations that need to make data-driven decisions in complex global environments. Many graduates also pursue postgraduate study in economics, business analytics, finance, or related fields, deepening their technical expertise or broadening their professional options.

Genuinely worthwhile
This is the perfect place to study this subject. The best part: the consulting projects with real companies genuinely prepare you for the working world. If I'm honest, first-year classes can be quite large. On the city β€” good transport link…

Would do it again
The course has exceeded my expectations. The best part: small-group tutorials really push your thinking. If I'm honest, accommodation allocation was stressful in the first year. On the city β€” the city is a brilliant student city with plenty…
