Lead the future with data-driven leadership

Data is rewriting the rules of business. The UK’s tech sector now exceeds $1.2 trillion in value, fuelled by a surge in demand for leaders who can turn information into insight. As Big Data and AI reshape industries, organisations need professionals who can connect data strategy with business growth.

Our online MBA Data Analytics degree brings those skills together. You’ll learn to analyse complex datasets, interpret trends, and use evidence to drive confident decision-making. Alongside strategic modules in leadership, change management, and financial intelligence, you’ll gain the analytical power to solve real business challenges. Accredited by the Chartered Management Institute (CMI), you’ll also graduate with Foundation Chartered Manager (fCMgr) status – proof of your professional edge.

Developed in the City of London, where business, technology, and analytics meet, this programme draws on the energy and expertise of a city leading global innovation. Apply in minutes to start in April 2026, studying full or part-time in a structure built for working professionals, and graduate ready to lead with clarity, credibility, and confidence in a data-first economy.

I am currently in full time employment, so being able to study at my own time and being able to be in control of my own studying was really important, and Walbrook provided that as part of their online degrees. Their model really works because you're able to juggle it around your current lifestyle more than the typical degree. Whether you're studying, whether you're part time, or whether you're parents, I would say just go for it.
