Business Meets Technology

Technological breakthroughs in AI, Big Data, Blockchain, IoT, and Fintech are reshaping the way we do business. Many business operations are becoming automated, and business decisions are now made based on massive data. As one of our six career tracks, the Business Technology and Analytics track will provide you with digital competencies that distinguish great managers from the rest.

Learn from the experts in their fields

Riding on HKUST’s renowned science and engineering faculties, we are proud to offer a wide range of pioneering business technology courses in the HKUST MBA program. These provide our students with a forward-thinking vision and cutting-edge skillsets. Some courses within the Business Technology & Analytics track are co-taught by faculty members from the Department of Computer Science & Engineering, who are at the forefront of global digital research.

Gradual Upskilling

Our courses are designed to cater to students from diverse backgrounds, who are at different levels and have different study needs. To ensure that our MBA students have an adequate understanding of business technology, an Introduction to Python Programming accelerator course is offered during orientation.

By establishing a fundamental proficiency of this programming language, you can improve your understanding of how it can be applied to diverse business functionalities. This acts as an introductory course for students without any programming knowledge, and prepares them for more advanced elective courses such as Deep Learning Business Applications with Python or Business Analytics in R.
