Data Analytics
Pearson BTEC Level 5 Higher National Diploma in Digital Technologies (Data Analytics). The award comes from Pearson in the UK, not from TIIB.
The work of turning a messy spreadsheet into a decision somebody can act on. Python, R and SQL for the handling, Power BI and Tableau for the telling, statistics and machine learning for the part in between. Your internship puts you on a real dataset with a real question attached.

A Level 5 HND is 240 credits
Direct entry into the final year of a UK bachelor's degree in data science, business analytics or information systems.
Those credits are the first two years of a UK bachelor's degree, which is why the last year is one year and not three.
Why here
An approved Pearson centre
The centre is approved to deliver and assess the award in Dubai Knowledge Park, and Pearson audits that.
35+ founders teach here
People who run companies now, in the room, not teachers who ran one years ago.
22+ companies take our students
That is what makes an internship a promise rather than a hope.
Also in Digital Technologies
Games and Animation
Two years in a studio routine, designing, modelling, animating and building in Unity and Unreal.
See the programmeArtificial Intelligence Solutions and Applications
Applied AI rather than AI theory, so you build the models instead of deriving them.

That is normal, and it is a ten-minute conversation rather than a research project. Admissions replies within one working day.
