MS in Business Analytics

This graduate-level degree is a STEM-designated program, which has a curriculum that enables students to develop advanced skills in predictive analytics and data mining as well as to use these skills to solve a variety of business problems.

Led by research faculty from Bauer’s Department of Decision and Information Sciences, the MSBA is designed to meet industry need for professionals who understand how to use data to make business decisions, said Professor and Department Chair Norman Johnson.

“As big data becomes increasingly ubiquitous, the information gleaned from data analytics is rapidly becoming one of the most transformative assets an organization can leverage,” Johnson added. “Today’s organizations seek professionals who have the skills to create, manage and use this information to allow them to gain and maintain their competitive advantage.”

 

Online MS in Management & Leadership

Bauer College’s first fully online degree program is a graduate offering in Management & Leadership. The 36-hour program is designed to improve the marketability of undergraduates who earned a non-business degree.

Faculty from the college’s Department of Management & Leadership will lead the online courses, which include video, discussion boards and group assignments.

“Hiring managers are looking for applicants with a wide range of soft skills and abilities, including decision making, management and leadership,” said Professor and Department Chair Steve Werner. “By offering this program online, we’re filling a gap in the market and giving students the flexibility to gain and enhance these skills outside a traditional classroom setting.”
