OVERVIEW
Your MSc in Marketing Analytics in a nutshell
The MSc in Marketing Analytics programme prepares you for marketing positions in which quantitative data analysis is key.
Hi,
Have you ever wondered why sometimes we like
watching sad movies?
Have you ever asked yourself why some influencers
make a living out of it while others with hundred of thousands of followers cannot sell a single t-shirt?
And who are the people who decided to stop
using Google services?
It’s always easier to explain seemingly irrational behaviours when you have data to do so.
Box office data, social media analytics, browser
and cookies data.
The good news is: we are in the data boom
era and nowadays, data are just waiting for you to make sense out of them.
Want to be part of this next generation of efficient analytical and marketing leader knowing how to deal with rich data? If so, our Master of Science in Marketing Analytics is the right programme for you!
In a period of unprecedented global shifts and
hyper-connectivity, the creation of sound marketing decisions relies, more than ever, on the combined knowledge of consumer behaviour with the increasing volume of information shared on a daily basis.
Successful businesses rely on decisioners who can bring together the creativity of marketers and the rigour of data analysts.
EDHEC MSc in Marketing Analytics is an accredited
programme entirely taught in English and
based in Lille, which will equip young talented
bachelor’s degree holders with a strong analytical appetite with the latest in-demand skills in marketing data expertise.
You will learn how to derive marketing strategies
that are adaptable, data-driven and consumer-centric.
Remember, data is information, and information
is power!
In this video, you will discover the programme
structure, the learning outcomes and which career paths you could pursue upon graduation.
If you are joining in direct entry our MSc in Marketing Analytics, the programme’s structure will be as following:

So what will you learn?
You will learn to deepen your analytical thinking

and respond to trends in the market, and to design creative strategies for business success.
The MSc in Marketing Analytics creates a bridge between creative marketing and rigorous data analysis, where numbers and figures support
marketing strategies to optimise impact and results.
Your starting point will be the consumer’s perspective. More precisely, you will get to dissect the psychology driving his behaviour, but you will also learn about his rights, in terms of data protection and privacy.
Simultaneously, you will get familiarised with statistics and models used in marketing contexts but also, to the basics of coding and data scraping, which will enrich your set of data collection tools. Using data visualisation software, web metrics
tools, customer management processes and much more, not only will you learn how to collect
and interpret raw data, but you will also discover how to turn your data into recommendations.
Finally, the wide array of elective courses offered to you, such as sustainability management, creative entrepreneurship, innovation and digital transformation, and much more, will also sharpen your marketing decision skills!
You will have the great opportunity to make your profile unique and align it with your career goals.

- 2-day Hackathon "How to best implement Microsoft 365 CRM solution"
- 1-day training session
- 1-day MB.910 Fundamentals certifications by Microsoft
Speaker: Etienne Denis. MSc in Marketing Analytics Programme Director.
Why a partnership between EDHEC and Microsoft and why is that relevant?
I think that Microsoft, it speaks for itself.
It's an international brand and it's a great brand I think it's the dream partner for any business school. It's a dream to have them on board in the first year of this MSc. It's highly relevant because it gives a lot of opportunity to the students and they put their hands on the technical aspects which, really, I think differentiate us from other programmes.
Speaker: Monica Prieto Langard. Alumni (1998) and Digital Transformation Senior Tech Specialist at Microsoft.
Digital innovations has totally transformed in fact all business models or organisations with data being the driver to rebuild customer relationships, employee relationships, Human relationships. So big data is the big deal.
Speaker: Beatrice Matlega. Director of partnerships and skills programmes in education at Microsoft.
EDHEC students will be the future business decision-makers, the future leaders in all industry. So it's very important for them to understand the concept of the new technology for instance AI cyber security sustainability and be able to use the new technology. For instance take advantage of their benefits so it's very important to work with EDHEC in order to upskill the students and to connect with the needs in companies and industries based on new technologies.
[Students had to pitch how to best implement the Microsoft CRM in a case study]
Speakers: Winning teams of the Hackathon.
I think that there are three main outputs that we can take from this experience. the first one is time management because it was not easy to do it in only 24 hours but we managed to do it so we can be proud of us.
The second thing is to do a pitch because we had to learn how to talk to a client, to think about a client and use the word that he can easily understand and the last output that I can say is discovering the platform, because we also truly think that is a great tool that can help the activities of the company on a daily basis.
I think winning a Microsoft certification is a real opportunity for us to put on our own resume because I think it will make the difference in our career
and also to the recruitment process that we are in. So yeah, it will make the difference and it will prove our competencies.
So thanks Microsoft I would say!

You will take three of the following five online foundational courses in the July/August period prior to arriving on campus. Depending on your background, the Selection Committee may require you to take certain classes or allow you to choose three courses from the list.
The objective of this course is to provide you with a solid grounding in the principles and practices of finance and to develop your understanding of the tools required to make good financial decisions.
This module aims to provide you with knowledge and understanding of key management issues in corporate finance and the market for financial assets.
This course objectives are to equip you with sound understanding of the fundamental concepts and vocabulary used in statistical modelling and make you aware of the powers of data analysis. It will enable you to correctly assess the validity of current techniques to common business situations, use simple Python programs to manipulate data and expressions, and confidently handle the presentation and interpretation of data using python language.
The course is designed to provide you with an overview of the foundations of financial accounting, with a practical focus on financial statement analysis and the valuation of public organisations. These foundations are deemed necessary for students to successfully pursue their studies at master's level.
The purpose of this course is to equip you with a fundamental knowledge of marketing and to demonstrate the key role that marketing plays in any organisation. You will gain a better understanding of what marketing is and its role in the firm, as well as the process of value creation from the perspective of customers, producers and society at large. You will learn how to mix various marketing tools and techniques in a coherent manner.
The primary objective of this course is to help you answer important strategic questions for companies or organisations, such as: What business will we be in? How do we compete for resources and create value? How do we organise for and assess performance?
In this course, you will focus on the complex and multidimensional nature of strategic decision-making.
Core modules are classes that must be taken by all students of the programme.
Nowadays, data-driven decision-making is the dominant paradigm of the marketing industry. Advanced theories of psychology are the most powerful tool in a marketer’s arsenal for describing, interpreting and, most importantly, making educated predictions of consumer behaviour. You will be exposed to the classic, current and advanced theories of psychology needed to make sense of data. This course will also enable you to conceptualise real-world questions of consumer behaviour and use experimental methods to address those questions that lend themselves to experimentation. You will learn about topics such as perception, perceptual and sensory issues, memory, information processing, motivation and attitudes, choice and decision-making, moods and emotions, (mis-)prediction and intertemporal issues, goals and goal-directed behaviour.
You will be introduced to quantitative marketing research data analysis. Following a recap of the fundamentals of statistics, the course will take you step by step through the major analysis methods used in making marketing decisions, such as variance, regression and cluster analysis. Eventually, you will learn how to interpret the results and propose appropriate solutions.
You will gain an in-depth understanding of EU data protection law, with a particular focus on the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). You will learn to master the key concepts through practical case studies, while tackling the practical and problematic interplay of topics such as intellectual property law, database protection and consumer protection.
If marketers and practitioners want to take their marketing analytics to the next level, Python is the way to go. Python is a widely used general-purpose, high-level programming language designed with an emphasis on code readability. Its syntax allows programmers to express concepts in just a few lines of code. Recently, the software has seen growing success in the business world. You will learn how to use Python to improve marketing automation with in-built modules and data analytics.
Data visualisation is prompting a shift towards more data-driven marketing decisions. In this context, marketing professionals should not only be able to analyse and explore data, but also be able to visually convey findings to leverage relevant information. Using practical and real-life applications, you will learn about the fundamental concepts of data visualisation and become autonomous with Power Bi Software to create advanced and interactive dashboards.
You will gain awareness and understanding about responsible data management, professional deontology and regulations related to the manipulation of data in online marketing practices. You will acquire a better understanding of the ethical issues surrounding business and the economy and you will learn the practical implementation of ethical standards in marketing by analysing controversial marketing campaigns and studying innovative, ethically sound initiatives.
Upon completion of this course, you will have developed a real understanding of the types of ethical issues encountered in marketing and both company and consumer responses to them, which will help you resolve key issues and specific marketing-ethics problems.
This course offers a framework for analysing Search and Social Media data to generate valuable insights and understand audience behaviour and topics of interest. By leveraging these analytical approaches, students will enhance content and SEO strategies, better understand audience needs, and influence future purchasing decisions. Upon completion, students will be able to generate insights from data, understand the Search and Social Media environment, perform in-depth analyses on specific topics using social and search data, and build comprehensive insight reports with actionable ideas for activation.
This course, sponsored by Microsoft, introduces students to the rapidly evolving field of generative AI, highlighting its potential to transform industries by automating content creation and fostering innovation. Students will gain a foundational understanding of generative AI and its industry applications, as well as explore future challenges and implications for corporations. By the end of the course, students will be proficient in using Microsoft tools to develop custom AI solutions and will be able to propose practical generative AI-based solutions to address specific managerial challenges.
An essential methodological element of contemporary marketing analytics is the quantitative analysis of textual data. You will be introduced to the concepts, techniques and uses of text mining, text analysis and natural language processing in the contexts of marketing and word-of-mouth marketing. The course will also cover analysis of user-generated content (UGC), such as product reviews or the reactions of consumers or influencers to social networks, as well as how to gather textual customer intelligence. You will learn how to collect, analyse and interpret textual data and extract actionable marketing insights from that analysis.
This course provides a comprehensive understanding of customer relationship management (CRM), emphasising both strategic and analytical approaches crucial for data-driven marketing. Students will learn advanced data manipulation and predictive modeling techniques using Python, gaining essential skills to enhance customer value and foster profitable relationships. By the end of the course, students will understand key customer management strategies and the most important quantitative CRM models used in marketing. They will also be able to analyse and develop customer management strategies, as well as assess customer worth to drive business growth.
Over the past two decades, political, social and technological developments have disrupted the strategic business landscape in almost every country around the world. There is an ongoing paradigm shift towards a more service-dominant, digital and global economy. As a result, future managers are confronted with an increased need to justify their trade-offs in the managerial decision-making process. Business research can be defined as a systematic inquiry that provides information for managerial decision-making.
As a future manager, you will need to understand how effective business research can provide high-quality information to improve managerial decision-making. The business research process is a sequential process based on scientific methods and allows future managers to understand, evaluate and conduct research to improve managerial decision-making.
Personalisation period
As part of the personalisation period of your MSc programme, you will be able to choose one certificate to complete or broaden your expertise by taking part in a learning expedition and follow several elective courses.
All students must complete a Master’s project, which provides the opportunity to develop strong writing and analytical skills and to gain expertise on a given topic.
The master’s project allows you to put your newly acquired knowledge and skills into practice. If you prove your ability to undertake high quality research, members of the EDHEC faculty or its research centres may offer you the opportunity to deliver your Master Project in the form of applied research, working under their supervision.
The personal and professional benefits of an internship are immense and enduring. The same goes for expanding your global contact network. During your internships abroad, you will develop valuable business relationships that will take your career goals to an international level. Many students find their jobs as a result of internships during their time at EDHEC.

Moving to a foreign country can be daunting, so it’s reassuring to know that the International Students Office (ISO) is there to help. The ISO welcomes more than 3,000 international students annually, helping them to settle in France and lending them support in daily life. It organises orientation events and multicultural seminars to welcome them to the EDHEC campuses in Lille and Nice. The team guides students through administrative procedures before their arrival and during their stay and answers any questions they may have about French systems (medical and home insurance, banking, resident permits, etc.).
Finding you a home from home
Once officially enrolled, we will help you to find suitable accommodation, either in an EDHEC residence or privately owned accommodation. The International Students Office is on hand to provide you with a list of apartments, halls of residence and other types of housing that fit your criteria. You can even ‘visit’ them virtually on our new Housing website. Our team will do everything they can to make arrangements with the owner and secure your booking. They can also arrange to pick you up from the airport on your arrival (where possible) and take you directly to your new home. The International Students Office also organises orientation events and integration seminars to welcome international students to the EDHEC campuses.
Untangling the red tape
EU nationals
European Union students can live and study in France as long as they have a national ID card. No passport or visa are required.
Non-EU nationals
Before arriving in France, students from outside the European Union must obtain a student visa from the French embassy in their country of origin or residence. Non-EU students must also have a valid passport from their country of origin.
One of the requirements for most visa applications is proof of accommodation in France. EDHEC's International Office is familiar with the visa formalities for most countries and will provide you with the necessary paperwork to complete. If you are concerned about your visa application, you can contact the International Office, provided you have already checked the relevant pages in the Welcome Guide and contacted your local embassy.

International Student Office | EDHEC Business School
[Music] Title: “International Student Office”
I just got accepted at EDHEC business school. Now I need to organise my arrival and find
accommodation. Luckily the international students office helped me all along this process.
All good, I'm ready. It is now time to reach France. On arrival, three key moments are organised to help me settle in: the welcome session, the services fair and the integration day.
I get a lot of practical information on different topics such as health insurance, public transportation, life in the city, and so on.
I met representatives from different EDHEC departments and partners during the service fair.
I participate in group activities, meet new friends and discover the campus.
Throughout the year, I visit ISO whenever I need assistance in my daily life in France.
Time flies, my experience at EDHEC is coming to an end. The international student office has been of great support before and during my stay, and it will remain available even after my departure.
Thank you to the International Students Office - Camilla Garcia Biel
[Music] A big “Thank you” to the International Student Office.
Camilla Garcia Biel. MiM Business Management student. Class of 2022.
So my name is Camila Garcia Biel. I'm a 26 year old international student from Peru, I'm doing the MiM track which is a three-year-long programme. The first year, you start with basic courses, with administrative courses. Then there is a year for professional immersion, and then I specialised in strategic finance and commercial intelligence. The most important thing is that out of all the business schools in France, EDHEC was the only one to come to Lima and actually meet the prospective students. After that I was completely sold. As soon as I knew that I was gonna come here, I was enrolled et cetera.
The first contact you have is with the international student office and they absolutely help you with everything. Starting with the visa process, with the housing process... They also help with anything you really need.
So arriving in France, what surprised me, for very good like very positive, was the international environment that I experienced living in the residence and coming to school. I was immediately in contact with people from different countries that I had never seen. And what scared me a little bit, was that the French level that i had before coming and the French level needed to be here. The gap was obvious, but people, especially in Lille, were very nice when I was trying to communicate with them. Even if i was using some English words or even some Spanish words, they were really nice.
The reason why I chose France as my home, is that it's the perfect balance from a latino point of view of the latin culture and the European culture. In the daylight you can see the difference and in the nightlife you can see the similarities. Differences and similarities that, at the end, really helped me develop myself as a person. And I think that's something that every international goes through and learns from. My first memory at EDHEC, it's the full day as i call it. It's the first day that we gather in the main hall and then we have outdoors activities, and then we eat together, they introduce us to the programme, they introduce us to the school. Being able to experience the location and the classes and the buildings, which are amazing, it's like a reality shock but a very positive one.
So if i had the all the amazing team from the ISO or the international student office members in front of me, the first thing that i would say would be definitely "thank you"!
Thank you, and thank you... Thank you for your help, thank you for your patience, thank you for your time. They really make the difference in the transition. The job that they're doing in that assistance, it's beyond what I've heard from other friends from other schools, from even other countries. For example, during the pandemic, they were very active and they helped us. And they sent us links for call centres, in case you needed to talk to someone, like psychological call centres and nutritionists, like they really take care of us in a very global aspect. I would just say thank you many times. The international office helps us because for example, they organise different cultural nights. The school has a lot of associations and many of them work with international students, for example, there's one called "Open Up" and they organise trips for international students. There are many ways to feel not or not feel homesick, and at the end of the course, it's a very amazing place to make amazing friends and that also helps.
