The Bachelor of Business in Business Analytics combines technical expertise in data mining, forecasting, visualization, and programming to address modern business challenges. Learners utilize professional tools like SAS, R, and Python's statistical libraries while developing solutions. This undergraduate program caters to those seeking careers blending statistical methods, coding, and business applications. Beyond foundational coursework, participants can specialize in one of four tracks: Applied Statistics, Business, Information Systems, or Supply Chain Management.
This business analytics degree holds the rare distinction of being STEM-certified among business programs. The STEM classification permits qualified international students to extend their Optional Practical Training (OPT) period to 36 months, unlike the standard 12-month limit for non-STEM qualifications.
The program also offers a combined bachelor's and master's degree pathway: Bachelor of Business in Business Analytics to Master of Science in Applied Statistics and Decision Analytics.
