About Business Analytics and Quantitative Marketing, Master - at Erasmus School of Economics

Would you like to dig deep to retrieve hidden information with the latest techniques? The need for quantitative support to optimise operational and strategic decision-making continues to increase. The Business Analytics and Quantitative Marketing programme focuses on the most creative side of data science: developing models and techniques to convert big data into knowledge, find opportunities and predict behaviour. Such models and techniques originate from statistics, econometrics, machine-learning or computer science.

This challenging programme teaches you how to use the most appropriate quantitative methods when solving business problems and conducting research. This will enable you to apply and further develop effective data-analysis methods and translate findings into actionable advice.

Is this the right choice for you?

Do you want to help businesses make smarter decisions and understand their customers better? Do data science and the use of advanced methods appeal to you? Would you like to contribute to sound decision-making and are maths, statistics and econometrics your thing? In that case, we have an exciting programme on offer.

This master has a technical focus. You will not only learn to apply state-of-the art methods, but also to understand the mathematical and statistics details of their workings. This knowledge prepares you to develop new methods yourself and to continue to keep up with the fast developments in this field after graduation. Therefore we would like to emphasise the importance of:

Strong quantitative and analytical skills
A strong background in mathematics, statistics and econometrics
Experience with programming (at least some)
Ambition and a go-getter mentality.

We advise you to check out the formal requirements for entry.
