Wield Data to Make a Positive Impact in Society
With the dual Full-Time MBA/Master of Science in Business Analytics (MSBA), you will gain a strong business foundation with the ability to develop applied analytical skills in order to make relevant and informed data-driven business decisions.
In a world where business professionals are increasingly asked to use data to make informed decisions, business analytics has become a fundamental field that can be applied to many functional business roles.
To pursue this dual degree program, you will need to apply and be accepted by both the Full-Time MBA and the MSBA programs. Once you are accepted, you will participate in both programs at the same time, focusing on your MBA coursework during the first year of your studies before switching to MSBA courses in your second year. The dual degree programs are only available in a full-time format.
