With this master’s degree, I see myself well placed to act as the interface between data scientists and the FP&A department in my company, and to create added value, especially with regard to digitalization.”

The imparted knowledge makes it possible to solve specific complex economic problems in a company with the help of statistical and data-driven methods. However, the program is not only about scientific procedures. It also focuses on the value that can be created in a company through new data-driven business models and digitized processes. The practical courses enable me to create added value for SAP SE on a daily basis at work.

“The Mannheim Master in Management Analytics at Mannheim Business School is not comparable to conventional degree programs at all. The class is very homogeneous as everyone pursues the same goals with the same outstanding motivation. But at the same time, the heterogeneity in the professional backgrounds of the participants offers an immense potential to learn from each other and exchange practical experiences. The program offers training in line with the times and provides an ideal basis for a better understanding and handling of analytical issues in the company. The lecturers are outstanding: I am impressed with their great practical experience and exciting lectures and teaching methods. The MMA is anything but boring!”
