How do I pursue business analytics course from IIM Bangalore?

To begin with, you should get some formal education in the background but doing a Business Analytics course specifically is not necessary. You can join online classes like Edureka for the same but you will need to be highly self-motivated.

Once you have 2 years of professional experience, you will have a lot of opportunities. As a fresher, you might struggle a little initially so look for some experience at the side and you will be able to get into your analytics career easily later.

Here is a table showing some standard salary analytics:

If you are planning to study on your own, you will take about 6 months of diligent practice with 4 to 5 hours weekly commitment. With this, you will be able to learn a lot of concepts like Hive, Scala, Java, and Python. Before joining any company, ensure that your concepts are clear because these play a major role in business analytics.

You can join internships in startups. This will help you gain the exposure you need and then you can switch over to MNCs with a larger skillset.
