FULL-TIME MBA
Data Analytics

In 2012, Harvard Business Review named Data Scientist the “sexiest job” of the 21st century, and recently it was named the “best job of the year” by Glassdoor, a leading web-based employment site.

The skills for a data scientist role include a strong basis in computer science, statistics and math, coupled with a strong business acumen and the ability to clearly communicate and convey the findings. An MBA with a specialization in Analytics will provide the groundwork for moving into this fast growing field.
