MS in Business Analytics
Business Analytics refers to the skills, technologies, applications and practices for continuous iterative exploration and investigation of past business performance to gain insight and drive business planning by using data and statistical methods. A variety of industries are in need of professionals who can take on positions of responsibility for collecting, analyzing and interpreting data in order to make sound strategic business decisions.
The MS in Business Analytics (MSBA) seeks to fill the talent gap in the area and to prepare graduates for this fast-growing field by developing students' critical skills in data- and model-driven management decision-making in the context of a firm's strategic vision. This STEM-designated program is designed to be completed either in one year's time (full time) or over two years (part time). The program may be taken either asynchronously online or in-person, and students can choose either one for any course. Students may opt to use their elective courses to earn a specialization that is tailored to their career interests. Available specializations include: Artificial Intelligence, Financial Planning and Analysis, Healthcare, Leadership, Marketing Analytics, Quantitative Finance, and, for those who have an undergraduate degree in Accounting or the equivalent, Accounting.
