What you'll study

You also choose a number of further modules from a wide range of options, so whether your interests lie in ethical leadership or heritage management, employee relations or decision making, you will find something to meet your needs. Finally, you can choose between a research-based dissertation or a practical business project on a subject of particular interest to you.

This module is designed to develop your capabilities in data analytics, covering descriptive, predictive, and prescriptive methods, and provides hands-on experience with real-world business challenges.

Lectures are designed to provide the key content of a particular topic, and seminars will give you the opportunity to join smaller groups to discuss and debate issues raised in lectures or resulting from your independent study.

Among the core modules, you will be required to complete a dissertation or a business project. The dissertation will allow you to carry out independent research and develop your skills in analysis and scholarly expression, using an appropriate theoretical framework. It can be undertaken here at Durham or can be internationally focused.

The business project usually involves an external organisation and gives you the opportunity to apply knowledge gained in the course to solve a real-life problem.
