Data Literacy Meets Analytical Expertise
In the Master's program Data Literacy and Business Analytics at TU Bergakademie Freiberg, you will acquire in-depth knowledge in data-driven decision support – from collecting and processing large volumes of data to analyzing, interpreting, and implementing data-based solutions in business and public administration.

Program Content

The program offers an interdisciplinary combination of statistics, computer science, economics, and ethics. Key focus areas include:

A strong emphasis is placed on practical application: In project modules and case studies, students work on real-world challenges from business and society – in close collaboration with partners from industry, research, and the public sector.

Program Structure

The program comprises four semesters (120 ECTS) and is structured as follows:

• Core modules providing methodological and theoretical foundations
• Elective modules for individual specialization (e.g., Predictive Analytics, Responsible AI, Visual Analytics)
• Practice-oriented project work and case study
• Master's thesis with scientific and real-world relevance

Please note: The courses on this degree program are held in German. However, the specialised literature is primarily written in English. English language skills are therefore also required for this degree program.
