The "Accounting and Finance Analytics" module provides comprehensive knowledge in the use of modern analysis tools such as Power BI, Tableau, Excel, simulations, and SAP for solving practical controlling and valuation issues. In realistic case studies, students apply their knowledge directly and independently develop analytical solution approaches, which are finally presented as scientific posters. Additionally, external appointments at Deloitte in Hanover take place, where the practical application of the tools in a corporate context is deepened.
