Business Analytics

Business analytics managers ask questions such as: How do you analyze vendor contracts? What materials are required to complete a job order? How do you calculate a project’s estimate to completion?

Business analytics examines and analyzes business processes, and then uses a variety of approaches and technologies to improve efficiency and quality. This program will help you develop problem solving skills and learn to think “outside the boxâ€‌ to find ways to reduce costs and improve the quality of a company’s goods and services. You'll complete formal presentations, group projects and various case studies during your degree.

Collaborative team work - Interact with your peers while learning to collaborate on projects.

Co-operative work placement - Gain valuable full-time paid work experience that alternates with your academic studies.

Study abroad opportunities - Cultural and academic experiences at destinations around the world.

Mentorship opportunities - A formal or informal relationship where you connect with, and learn from, an established professional.
