Program details

Overview

Business Analytics is a specialization within Carleton University's Bachelor of Commerce, offered by the Sprott School of Business. The programme introduces the field of business analytics, exploring applications of data analytics across business disciplines and teaching students to use data to make decisions with less risk and better outcomes. Students take part in Sprott's Employability Passport, a four-year career development programme that builds job-ready skills and self-awareness alongside coursework, supporting graduates' transition into meaningful employment. A co-op option is available, giving students the opportunity to gain paid work experience related to their studies. The specialization combines core Bachelor of Commerce business education with a focus on data-driven decision-making, preparing graduates for analytics, business intelligence and decision-support roles across industries that rely on data to guide commercial strategy.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: Admission to the Bachelor of Commerce (Honours), including its Accounting, Business Analytics, Entrepreneurship, Finance, International Business, Management, and Marketing concentrations, requires the Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) or equivalent with six Grade 12 U or M courses. These must include 4U English, Advanced Functions, and either Calculus and Vectors or Mathematics of Data Management, with Calculus and Vectors preferred. Applicants who submit an English-language proficiency test may use it to also satisfy the 4U English prerequisite. Students do not choose a concentration until after first year, so all concentrations share this first-year entry standard. Advanced standing to second year or beyond normally requires an overall CGPA of 9.00 (B+) or higher. Direct entry to the co-op option additionally requires meeting the program's overall and prerequisite-course cut-off averages, full-time registration in the Honours program, and eligibility to work in Canada. Admission averages are set each year on a program-by-program basis and the minimum only establishes eligibility for consideration.
