Jobs & Careers
A Special Advantage as Business Analysts
Business Analysts are invaluable components to organisations. While some may eventually choose to deepen their technology skills and pursue management careers with companies or units that are technology providers; others grow so knowledgeable in the business that they are "drafted" into the business units to lead follow-on projects. They are promoted into the ranks of senior business management, and become the champions of using technology and process improvement to drive business innovation and value creation.
Employers and industry veterans have commended BSc (IS Management) Graduates as having a distinct advantage in this role as they are able to effectively harness the synergies from both the business and the technology areas.
