Students must complete technical subjects in order to know how to use different computer tools to elaborate reports, but they must also take subjects related to social sciences, for instance sociology and international geopolitics. The masterʼs degree considers that data do not have any value if you are not able to manage and analyse them. Its main objective is to turn big data statistics into useful realities. Masterʼs degree graduates will be able to work at public institutions and private companies, in departments of strategy and management, in processes to attain internationalization, in short, in departments involved in producing the necessary knowledge to assist decision making.

This new masterʼs degree is included into ENTIʼs offerings. Last year, the school began to offer the degree in Interactive Digital Content, the first degree at Catalan universities aimed at training experts on videogames, a growing sector that includes interactive technologies which can be applied to diverse subject areas (health, education, sport, etc.).
