I chose Business Analytics at UTS because of the IT focused offering & exposure to data processing.
Why did you choose Business Analytics at UTS?
I chose the Master of Business analytics at UTS because of the IT focused offering (IT Stream), providing more exposure to data processing using programming languages.
What was the most valuable thing you learned?
For learning, the increase in critical thinking skills, research techniques and developed understanding of multiple programming languages. For mentality, removing some personal doubt and thoughts of imposter syndrome by developing skills and experience into areas I’d wish to progress in. As a whole, mentally I put off higher education for so long, anxious about the challenge but by pushing through those initial fears and putting in the effort, I was able to succeed and complete a life goal.
What are you most proud of during your time at UTS?
Other than completing the course, something that I’m proud about during my time with UTS is learning how to juggle. I was able to work full time, study the masters part time and still maintain a pretty normal level of family life, supporting my partner and children.
