Program overview
What EBS Universität für Wirtschaft und Recht says about their program:
To understand the world, we need data. We need to observe, measure, and collect data points. That’s how we learn. That’s how we develop. But to stay ahead, we have to understand data and use it as a basis for shaping tomorrow’s world.
Data expertise is becoming increasing important in every economic sector, business and department. There are two main paths open to graduates of this course at EBS:
- Joining a company (e.g. industry/banking) as a business analyst or data analyst
- Become a consultant in a first or second tier consulting firm. We work closely with partners such as KPMG, EY and PWC.
Our goal to impart knowledge and values has proved successful.
This is underpinned by a strong network of over 12,000 alumni who work in top positions - from KPMG, PWC, Roland Berger to BCG and many more. The alumni association is always there to support you during and after your studies. As you can see - we are a huge family.
Examples of concrete career prospects are Data Analyst, Data Consultant, Management Consultant, Data Scientist and Quantitative Financial Analyst (“Quant”).
The degree programme comprises four semesters (120 ECTS) and integrates intensive cooperation with companies into most courses, in which students work on practice-related projects supervised and coached by our faculty members. In the first semester, in addition to the practical Onboarding Project, the strategic, economic and financial foundations are laid in core modules. The second semester offers you the opportunity to specialise in elective modules and to enhance your practical experience in the Field Project.
You can organise the last two semesters entirely according to your needs: Either through a stay abroad at one of our partner universities (Semester Abroad Track) or through an internship in a company (Practice Track). The last part of the programme is dedicated to your final thesis. With an additional semester abroad in the Semester Abroad Track, you also have the option of obtaining a double degree.
