Business Analytics Co-Major (STEM)

Business Analytics Co-Major 

Business analytics combines the analysis of raw data with the tools and concepts of business to solve real-world problems. How can app-based delivery services increase productivity? How can a gym retain and grow memberships? How can a meal delivery service predict customer's demands while minimizing product spoilage?

The Business Analytics Co-Major will prepare you to find actionable answers to complex questions in any industry. You will gain the skills you need to be a leader in the business world and to shape the direction of your future employers. The co-major is an applied program which complements existing business majors and cannot be taken as a stand-alone major. The focus is on the ability to communicate the business analysis of data that spans all disciplines, without the heavy scientific component. There is no program-specific prerequisite requirement as Business Statistics is a course in the business core required of all majors. The program focuses on the ability to communicate the business analysis of data that spans all disciplines, making it a logical companion to other business majors.

The co-major curriculum consists of 9 credit hours of required courses and 9 credit hours of elective courses, for a total of 18 credit hours.
