In today’s world, effective business leaders must be willing and able to embrace data-driven decision making. With the ¼¯ÃÀÂé¶¹MBA’s data analytics sequence, you’ll master the skills necessary to confidently approach data across a range of job functions and industries.
“You encounter Big Data no matter what your job is. Our students are finding that they go to interviews for positions with seemingly nontechnical titles like ‘Market Specialist’ or ‘Financial Manager’ and are asked about their exposure to mathematical modeling. We’ve committed to a curriculum that gives all our MBAs a solid practical knowledge of all major aspects of analytics so that they can work effectively with the quantitative specialists at their workplaces, and stand out among job candidates.”
Our data analytics courses are developed for students from a variety of academic and professional backgrounds. Prior to taking Data Analytics 1, students gain foundational knowledge of statistics by completing Managerial Statistics, a quantitative skills course.
The data analytics sequence is built into the ¼¯ÃÀÂé¶¹MBA curriculum, providing a vital analytical component of the program and its cross-function, cross-industry design.
Each data analytics course takes a significant hands-on approach to help students gain proficiency with tools most sought after by employers, including R, SQL, Python, and Tableau.
Our faculty have deep expertise in data analytics, and use state-of-the-art analytics models in their academic research. Many consult with top technology companies and are experts in the fields of analytics, machine learning, and artificial intelligence.
