The Asian Institute of Management (AIM) is set to revolutionize the Philippine education landscape with the launch of its Master in Data Analytics (MDA) program on 30 August 2024. This innovative program addresses the escalating demand for skilled data analysts globally and positions AIM at the forefront of Industry 4.0.
The Analytics Association of the Philippines (AAP) estimates that by 2028, the country will need 500,000 analytics professionals. This significant figure, however, only considers the IT industry, suggesting the actual demand could be higher in other industries such as marketing, sales, media, public relations, human resources, and government.
Recognizing the critical role of data in driving an organization’s success, AIM has carefully designed a curriculum that equips professionals with the essential tools and knowledge to harness the power of data. The 18-month, part-time, and hybrid program offers unparalleled flexibility, allowing working professionals to seamlessly integrate their graduate studies with their careers.
“The business landscape is rapidly evolving. Leaders who can harness the power of data and AI will undoubtedly shape the future”, said Professor Corinne Burgos, PhD, Academic Program Director of the Master in Data Analytics at AIM.
The MDA program will provide students with a deep understanding of data collection, analysis, interpretation, and visualization. Graduates will be empowered to extract actionable insights, make data-driven decisions, and contribute significantly to their organizations’ growth and competitiveness.
With a focus on practical application, the program delivers a curriculum that blends theoretical knowledge with hands-on experience. Students will have the opportunity to work on real world projects and gain exposure to best practices in various industries.
“This is not merely obtaining a degree but a strategic investment,” said Professor Burgos. She emphasized that by enrolling, you are not just acquiring knowledge; you are equipping yourself with the tools to shape your future, whether it is through automation, robotics, artificial intelligence, and data analytics.
AIM is committed to producing graduates who are not only technically proficient but also possess strong business acumen. The MDA program aspires to develop well-rounded data professionals capable of effectively communicating insights to diverse audiences.
The MDA program offers exceptional value for the comprehensive education and career advancement opportunities it provides. Applications for the April 2025 intake is now open. For more information about the program, please visit aim.edu.
