Big data represents a rapidly evolving field. Modern computing systems now produce 15 petabytes of fresh data daily—eight times the volume contained in all U.S. libraries combined, with approximately 80% of daily generated data being unstructured text. Data analytics helps achieve goals by spotting patterns, developing predictive forecasting models, and refining business operations for better efficiency. Skilled professionals capable of effectively processing, examining, visualizing, and overseeing this continuously expanding data are in high demand.
The business and information technology department provides more than twelve sought-after, top-tier graduate certificates in rapidly expanding sectors, featuring the nation's second-ranked big data certification. Whether aiming to advance your career skills or transition professions, our programs are tailored to help working professionals achieve their objectives. Graduate certificates enable you to expand your expertise in a specialized area and maintain a competitive edge in the current job market.
For current Missouri S&T graduate students, these certificates also permit declaring a specialization. This adds a formalized focus area to your degree. Certificate courses may count toward graduate degree requirements, though no single course can apply to multiple certificates.
Our certificate programs consist of four advanced courses centered on a particular study concentration. Most courses are available both on-campus and online, providing the adaptability and convenience you require.
