TRANSCRIPT
Hi, my name is James Adonopoulos and I'm the Academic Dean here at Kaplan Business School. In today's data-driven world, business decisions are increasingly powered by insights derived from vast amounts of information.
But the ability to effectively analyse and interpret data is becoming more and more challenging as a result of the rapidly evolving digital landscape. It's a landscape that requires students to complete a course that goes beyond theoretical learning, one that equips them with the practical skills of most value to employers.
So welcome to the Master of Business Analytics at Kaplan Business School, a course designed to meet the fast-changing demands of today's business world.
What makes this program truly unique is that the curriculum is updated every trimester to reflect the latest advancements in business analytics and data technology. This alone ensures you're always learning the skills most needed in industry. You'll get to work with authentic data sets using cutting- edge software that's entirely free, all of which prepares you for the practical realities of your future career.
We believe at Kaplan Business School that the best way to learn is by doing. That's why our assessments are project-based with no final exams at all, just hands-on experience solving real business problems. We also don't believe in formal lectures. Instead, our highly interactive workshops keep you engaged while giving you the opportunity to practise and refine the skill sets you'll actually be using throughout your employment. And our teachers come from industry, not just academia, thereby bringing real-world experience into every class.
All of this means that you're not just learning theory, you're instead preparing for the real demands of the workforce, ensuring you're ready to step into roles like Business Analyst, Data Scientist, and Analytics Consultant as soon as you graduate. Making this a truly well-rounded education are also the two MBA electives you complete as part of this degree, which gives you the opportunity to choose innovative subjects that explore themes like Emotional Intelligence, Consumer Behaviour, Contemporary Leadership and Cultural Intelligence.
It's all part of our commitment at Kaplan Business School to support you every step of the way. In fact, we're recognised globally for our sector-leading support services. For example, our Learning Advisors are always available to help you strengthen your study skills while our Career Central Team can provide you with tailored coaching on your job applications, internships, and networking strategies. And our qualified on-campus counselors are available to assist you with your well-being both inside and outside the classroom in addition to 24/7 assistance via the Sonder app whenever you need additional support with your physical or mental wellness.
