MA/MS in Data Analytics

Hosted at NYU Shanghai with a global track, this master's degree prepares students who have little work experience but a strong analytical background for the rapidly growing field of business analytics. They learn to tackle business problems using data in the age of big data. Because the field spans several areas, the curriculum blends business topics such as finance, marketing, revenue management and operations with data science subjects including statistics, econometrics, data mining and visualization, and with management science methods like optimization, stochastic modeling and simulation. Quantitative and technical approaches are stressed alongside their uses in different business functions. Faculty and experienced practitioners contribute extensive industry knowledge. The program is a sister to a similar master's at the Stern School.
