Beginning in fall 2021, students in the Nazarian College’s
Department of Systems and Operations Management can earn a Bachelor of Science degree in business administration with an option in
business analytics, or minor in the subject.
“We are in the middle of a new industrial revolution one that involves data and information,” said department chair Seung Paik, who has worked with the department faculty to create the new undergraduate major and minor in business analytics. “From mobile phones to social media to retail websites, more and more data is being created and stored every day. All this data allows us the opportunity to make better-informed decisions, whether in the private or public sector, if we can analyze the data and convert that to information for high-quality decision making. But to make the right decisions, business, governmental agencies and nonprofits need skilled professionals who know which data to look at and how to interpret it.”
