To provide business professionals with a better understanding of the data and analytical tools that are driving so many decisions in today’s business environment, Rider University now offers a new Business Analytics Graduate Certificate Program consisting of four graduate-level courses that can be completed within one year on a part-time basis.
“This new program was designed with the valuable input of executives in the analytics field to help students gain the skills and knowledge needed to organize, analyze and gain insights from business data to make effective decisions,” says Lan Ma Nygren, Ph.D., chair of Rider’s Department of Information Systems and Supply Chain Management.
The program consists of 12 credit hours that are highly applied in nature, integrating project-based learning, simulations, case studies and field experience with industry partnerships.
“From healthcare to consumer behavior to corporate finance, this program will increase students’ confidence in working with big data and business modeling,” says Cynthia Newman, associate dean of the College of Business Administration. “It puts them at the forefront of the data revolution and improves their marketability in an environment where the value of analytical skills is on the rise.”
