Masters in Analytics and Management

London Business School’s Masters in Analytics and Management (MAM) is a 12-month degree built for numerate graduates who want to work where business, data, and machine learning intersect.¹ It is a distinct programme from the school’s flagship Masters in Management: where the MiM is a broad general-management degree, the MAM is an analytics-forward course that pairs the management foundations with data visualisation, machine learning, and AI.² The 2024 cohort was small (89 students), young (average age 23), and almost entirely international (98%).⁴

Overview

The MAM is one of several pre-experience master’s degrees LBS runs alongside its MBA, Masters in Finance, and Masters in Management. It targets applicants with a strong, quantitatively-grounded undergraduate degree — LBS asks for a minimum 2:1 (or equivalent) in a numerate discipline — and positions graduates for analytics, consulting, and technology roles rather than the generalist management track the MiM feeds.¹ ²

The programme runs from the LBS portfolio’s standard “12–16 months, full-time, London” structure: three terms of coursework from late August through June, with an optional fourth term.² Teaching takes place at the school’s Regent’s Park campus, shared with the rest of the LBS programme set, so MAM students sit alongside MiM, MBA, and MiF candidates in electives, clubs, and careers events.

LBS holds triple accreditation (AACSB, EQUIS, and AMBA).⁶ Unlike the rankings carried by the flagship MiM and Masters in Finance, LBS does not publish a separate ranking specific to the MAM, so this profile leads with the programme’s own published outcomes rather than a league-table position.

Curriculum

The MAM core is deliberately quantitative. Students take foundational management courses — finance, strategy, marketing, accounting — alongside a data-and-analytics spine covering data visualisation, statistics, machine learning, and applied AI.² The intent is fluency in both the language of management and the tools of modern analytics, so graduates can translate data work into business decisions rather than sit purely in a technical function.

After the core, students choose from the broad LBS elective catalogue — the same one open to the MBA and MiM — letting them stream towards analytics-heavy consulting, technology, or finance. As with the MiM, LBS does not award named concentrations; recruiters read the elective transcript, and the careers team coaches students on elective sequencing for their target sector.

Class Profile

The MAM cohort is small — 89 students in the Class of 2024 — and one of the most international in this directory at 98%, drawn from 29 nationalities.⁴ The average age at entry is 23, consistent with the programme’s early-career, pre-experience positioning. Women made up 42% of the 2024 class; LBS’s live class-profile page reports a higher share (around 48%) for the most recent incoming cohort.⁴

The class is academically selective and quant-oriented: the 2024 average GMAT was 699, with the GRE accepted as a full equivalent and no published minimum.⁴ ⁵

Application & Deadlines

LBS admits the MAM through rolling rounds rather than fixed competitive deadlines, typically running from autumn to early summer for the following August intake — the same rolling structure the school uses across its master’s portfolio.⁵ Earlier applications generally benefit from a larger pool of available seats and earlier scholarship visibility.

The application requires undergraduate transcripts, a GMAT or GRE score, references, essays, and an interview stage. Exact target-cycle dates are confirmed against the school’s official admissions page as they are published; see every European school’s confirmed rounds side by side on our interactive deadlines timeline.

Tuition, Scholarships & Funding

Tuition for the 2026 intake is £52,950, plus a £200 student association fee.³ That is the same headline tuition as the LBS MiM. Central-London living costs typically add £20,000–£25,000 per academic year. LBS offers a portfolio of merit and need-based scholarships across its graduate-masters programmes, and roughly a fifth of graduate-masters students receive some scholarship support; international students can also access collateral-free Prodigy Finance loans.³

Career Outcomes

The 2024 employment report — the most recent published — shows 91% of MAM graduates receiving an offer within three months of graduation (90% accepting within three months), against a 99% reporting rate.⁴ Technology accounts for 35% of placements and consulting for 34%, with finance taking a further 15%; the balance spreads across industrials, consumer and retail, energy, and healthcare.

Top recruiters span the major strategy houses (Bain, BCG, McKinsey), large technology and payments firms (Amazon, Mastercard, IBM), and the bulge-bracket banks (Goldman Sachs).⁴ LBS reports a mean base salary of £41,314 for the class (range £7,350–£108,403) — note this is a mean rather than a median — with just over half of graduates also receiving sign-on or performance compensation.⁴ The UK Graduate Route visa lets international graduates work for two years after the programme without sponsorship.

Campus & Life

The MAM is taught at the LBS campus on the southern edge of Regent’s Park, a few minutes’ walk from Baker Street. There is no residential campus in the Continental sense; students live across Marylebone, Camden, King’s Cross, and the City, and the city quickly becomes the campus. With more than 80 student clubs shared across the LBS programme set, MAM students integrate with MiM, MBA, and MiF peers in electives, careers events, and social life — a meaningful network-broadener, and the reason many applicants weigh the MAM against the flagship MiM before deciding.
