Business Analytics
Big data. Data mining. Artificial Intelligence. You know that with every click, every purchase, every “like,” you are sharing information with businesses. But what do businesses do with all that information? It depends on the business, of course. But every business needs someone trained in business analytics to use that data and develop successful strategies.
Our undergraduate and graduate programs were developed in coordination with some of the biggest industrial, manufacturing, hospitality, nonprofit, and retail companies in the world. Whether you are a new student just entering college or an experienced executive, we have a program for you. In a world where more and more decisions need to be made using more and more data, the analytics programs will prepare you to find the right questions, find the right data, do the right analysis, and make the right decisions at any level in the organization.
