MABA (Applied Business Analytics) - STEM

The goal of this Master of Applied Business Analytics (MABA) program is to address the growing demand for analytical capabilities in solving business problems that are demanded by a variety of employers within the United States. Research results from public and private sectors show that there are substantially fewer experts in the field of business analytics than there are opportunities for them. 

This program prepares students not only to be able to analyze and interpret data, but also to translate this into effective decision-making for complex business problems. The program is a unique combination of one functional area of business and a breadth of courses in business analytics capped by an internship at your place of work or in another organization. Another option is to cap the program with a 6-credit hour Master's thesis in the Neff College of Business and Innovation.

The Master of Applied Business Analytics degree is granted to students who satisfactorily complete a minimum of 30 semester hours at the 6000-level in the College of Business and Innovation meeting the program requirements. In addition, most non-business students and even some business students may need up to 9 credit hours of 5000-level pre-requisites.
