- About
The Helzberg School of Management’s dual Master of Science in Data Analytics and Master of Business Administration (MBA) program gives you both the management skills to lead your colleagues and the technical skills to analyze business data. Pairing these together allows you to complete two degrees simultaneously in a fraction of the time it would take to earn them separately.
Program Benefits
A principal advantage of this dual-degree program is that you have the option to complete one degree before the other. This gives you the flexibility to tailor your professional development to suit your career timeline. Your Helzberg School of Management adviser will work closely with you to create the optimal career plan as you develop your skills and expertise.
Features
- Program consists of a total of 48 credit hours for both degrees, which includes 42 core courses and six electives
- Ability to receive one degree before the other, or complete both at the same time
- There are five prerequisite credit hours needed before beginning the Data Analytics program, and seven prerequisites for the MBA (may waived based on academic and professional experience)
- Most courses meet one evening per week for eight weeks and are two credit hours
Average completion time is 3-3.5 years for part-time or 2-2.5 years for full-time students
