### Why study Business Analytics?
Businesses able to make better decisions using data will be the ones that prosper in global, highly competitive markets awash with information. Professionals who want to succeed in a data-driven world will not only understand the numbers but also be able to communicate insights and prescribe action.
#### Job growth
Within Australia and around the world there is a critical shortage of people with deep analytical, data management and interpretation skills, with one recent survey indicating 40% of companies struggling to find and retain their data analytics talent.
#### Learn from the best
Teaching staff come from a range of fields at UTS, including Accounting, Economics, Finance, Marketing and Management within UTS Business School, School of Electrical and Data Engineering, School of Computer Science, and School of Information, Systems and Modelling from the Faculty of Engineering and IT and also subjects from the Faculty of Transdisciplinary Innovation.
#### Study online
In addition to the on-campus Master degree, UTS offers a choice of online Master of Business Analytics, as well as Graduate Certificate, Graduate Diploma (exit-only) and Extension Master degrees, allowing you to choose the level of study and investment that best fits your needs.
## Get inspired
Professionals who want to succeed in a data-driven world will not only understand the numbers but also be able to communicate insights and prescribe action.
These two strands come together as our coursework is designed to meet the needs of professionals with either a business or an IT background who are looking for a boundary-crossing degree to take them forward.
It’s a future-proofing career that builds skills unlikely to be automated and which are in demand.
“They don’t teach you anything you don’t need because the programs are really suited to the needs of industry. Nothing you learn is obsolete.”

## Frequently asked questions
Use the buttons to expand or collapse the section.
- ### Can I transfer to UTS from a different university?
Yes, although you will need to apply. Application information is available for domestic applicants and international applicants.
If you transfer to UTS, you may be able to receive credit towards your new course based on your previous study through [recognition of prior learning (RPL)](https://www.uts.edu.au/for-students/admissions-entry/recognition-of-prior-learning).
- ### Can I defer my study?
Whether you can defer depends on several factors. Some courses do not allow you to defer, and you cannot defer if you commence your course in the Spring or Summer session.
Visit [deferring an offer](https://www.uts.edu.au/commencing-students/essential-information/deferring-your-course-commencement) for more information.
- ### Is it possible to study part time?
Domestic applicants can study part time by enrolling in a less than full-time study load. Visit [study load](https://www.uts.edu.au/current-students/managing-your-course/your-enrolment/study-load) for more information.
If you’re an international student on a student visa, you must maintain a full-time study load. If you want to study part time, apply for [permission to reduce your study load](https://www.uts.edu.au/current-students/managing-your-course/classes-and-assessment/academic-progression/international-student-requirements/permission-reduce-study-load).
- ### Is PLT offered online or on campus?
From **2026 onwards**, PLT will consist of a blended course with:
- **Compulsory on-campus workshops**, typically in intensive blocks, including assessments
- Online learning components (readings, discussion board).
\
It will **not** be entirely online due to accreditation requirements.
- ### Can I study a UTS subject if I’m a student at another university?
Yes, although you will need to apply. If you’re studying at a different university, cross-institutional study allows you to enrol in UTS subjects and receive credit for them towards your course.
More information is available at [cross-institutional study](https://www.uts.edu.au/for-students/admissions-entry/how-to-apply/cross-institutional-study-applications).
- ### Do I meet the eligibility requirements?
Our programs come in different formats to suit your needs. If you’re interested in a master’s degree, you typically need a bachelor degree and at least 2 years of relevant work experience.
If you don’t meet these requirements, you might be eligible for our Graduate Diploma or Graduate Certificate programs. Check the admission requirements on the course page.
- ### Can I register for a tour of the UTS campus?
Yes, UTS runs free campus tours throughout the year.
[Register for a UTS campus tour](https://www.uts.edu.au/study/undergraduate/our-courses/events-and-info-sessions/register-uts-campus-tour) to secure a spot.
- ### Do I need a bachelor degree to do a master’s degree?
Postgraduate study typically requires a bachelor degree, but if you have approximately 8 years of professional experience, you may qualify for a Graduate Certificate. This certificate covers core subjects and serves as a pathway to a master’s degree.
