MBA in Business Analytics
The data-informed MBA for future business leaders
In the modern age of business and the continued expansion of AI, decisions must be made backed by data. Applied business analytics allows a manager to leverage this data using statistical analysis, including explanatory and predictive modeling and fact-based management, to drive decision-making. Analytics may be used as input for making decisions across all realms of business, including marketing, human resources, project management or research and development.
Clemson University's MBA Program has worked with industry partners to create a new concentration in business analytics designed with their needs in mind.
Data-driven companies treat their data as a corporate asset and leverage it for competitive advantage. Successful business analytics depends on having quality data to analyze and skilled practitioners who understand how to leverage the data to maximize effective decision-making for their organization.
Business Analytics students will gain exposure to software and programs like Power BI, R, Python, Tableau and others to develop effective business strategies in real-world projects.
Program Structure
The program is modeled after the structure of our highly successful part-time MBAe program, which is a unique blended program consisting of online classes coupled with a few weekends per semester in person in our facility in Greenville. This blended delivery affords students the ultimate flexibility along with the advantage of in-person learning and networking opportunities with other students. The in-person classes are scheduled for two weekends (Friday-Sunday) per semester, and the remainder of the coursework is completed online.
