Yes, switching from a bachelor's in design to a master's in business analytics or data analytics is feasible, but you must meet specific admission criteria.

Most universities accept students from diverse academic backgrounds if you can show strong quantitative skills and relevant coursework. You may need to demonstrate proficiency in mathematics, statistics, or programming. Some programs may also require or prefer relevant work experience and an English language test score such as IELTS or TOEFL.

Given your 4-year bachelor's degree and 11 years of work experience, you have a solid foundation.
