Summary

Understand the people behind the data as you unlock crucial insights businesses need to grow. Brands are constantly looking to make smarter, more meaningful connections with consumers, so customer data has never been more important. With a strong focus on understanding the numbers behind human behaviour, this course gives you both advanced analytical skills and strategic marketing know-how. Data helps businesses understand their audience. If they know their audience, they’re more likely to see results. As a marketer, this is the million-dollar question: the key to successful campaigns, customer retention, brand reputation and ultimate business success. Learn skills spanning big data, predictive analytics and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and stand out with this unique Masters. From retail, location planning, logistics and marketing, your options are open to forge the path you want to take next. Plus, you'll be based in Leeds, a city that’s right at the heart of global marketing action.

Student profile: Li-Yuan Teng "After I completed my undergraduate studies in Germany, I was searching online for the right course to pursue my academic career in the marketing and consumer behaviour fields. I spoke to a study abroad consultant and requested suggestions on finding my dream course. As a result, both paths turned out to be Leeds University Business School (LUBS)."
