Program description
All industries require more business analytics graduates. The Analytics for Corporate Decision-Making graduate certificate program uses big data analytics to equip students for business decision-making. It's about turning information into knowledge and action. The purpose is to prepare students to compete across corporate divisions by helping them "create stories" about data. Through data analytics and business analytics courses, graduates will obtain the information and skills needed to support real-world business decision-making and planning through data insights, data management, and data science.
