Analytics is a challenging and exciting field that helps people and businesses make informed decisions based on quantitative information. As an analytics professional you’ll make extensive use of data modeling, statistical techniques and business scenarios to use data to find meaning, explain causation and make predictions. Data analysts are highly sought after as valuable partners to almost any field of study, including engineering, agriculture, social science, medical science, environmental science, forestry, marketing, accounting and finance.
The business analytics major includes a mix of modeling, data management and programming courses using tools such as Python, Microsoft SQL Server, Tableau and PowerBI. The program includes a 3-course sequence in database and data warehousing.
The degree concludes with a capstone class where students work on a real-world problem for a nonprofit or business partner. Past partners have included the City of Denver, Denver Police, RTD (Denver Regional Transportation District) and Levi Strauss.
Students also have an opportunity to earn a global master’s degree with the University of Western Australia in Business Information and Logistics Management.
