Business Analytics for Decision Making
CIS 465
This course provides students in the STEM-designated Masters of Business Analytics program with the opportunity to use the skills they have developed through other coursework in statistics and analytics to the development and execution of a capstone project. The projects, using real-world situations and data, serve as preparation for careers in industries such as marketing, consulting, and finance that require extensive knowledge and application of industry-leading consultative processes. Many organizations face the challenges of developing information into knowledge and then converting that intelligence into actionable decisions. Organizations demand the interdisciplinary skills of professionals who can find insights through research and analysis that can assist decision-makers across various divisions. Students from the Simon Business School at the University of Rochester will create a narrative on how advanced analytical techniques can provide actionable business solutions.
