Master of Science in Business Analytics

The Master of Science in Business Analytics is designed for innovators and problem solvers who want to effect change at all levels of business. Open to people from all educational and professional backgrounds, this program fits the career needs of both recent graduates and working professionals. It is offered in full- and part-time schedules.  Students who wish to attend full-time can complete the program in one year. Working professionals can take classes on a part-time basis. This program reflects three recent changes in graduate business education. First, it reflects a growing market for specialized graduate business education, as compared to the more traditional, generalist approach taken in MBA programs. Second, whereas MBA programs require several years of work experience beyond the undergraduate degree, the M.S. in Business Analytics accommodates both the newly graduated student with no or very little work experience as well as more experienced working professionals who are seeking advanced specialized business analytics skills. Third, it reflects the increasing reliance of companies on analysts who can transform data into actionable value-adding business decisions.
