In a global environment characterized by digital transformation, rapid change, and high levels of uncertainty, the ability to hire, reskill, and upskill analytic talent is a major driver of organizational performance. The Graduate Certificate in Applied Analytics in the College of Professional Studies is designed to prepare students to develop analytical skills to support decision making in an organization's strategy. The certificate curriculum focuses on data discipline, navigating the sea of information that is generated by machines; technical ability, understanding how machines function and how to interact with them; and the human discipline, what humans can do that machines, for the foreseeable future, cannot emulate. The program emphasizes experiential learning.
