2. Analytics programs at other schools-2 MS in Business Analytics and Project Management at UCONN-contd – Students pursuing a full time load could finish in approximately 18 months. Our expectation is that most students will be working adults taking part-time loads and likely take 2 to 3 years to complete the program. – !0 courses: 5 required courses in project mgt, 5 in analytics (4 required in each). 8 of the courses already exist Institute for Advanced Analytics at North Carolina State University, Master of Science in Analytics – See http://analytics.ncsu.edu/http://analytics.ncsu.edu/ – The Master of Science in Analytics (MSA) is a novel, integrated curriculum spanning three semesters. Classes were developed specifically for the degree and taught exclusively to students in the program. Students complete the entire curriculum as a cohort group, working frequently in teamsMaster of Science in Analytics – 11 months of intensive study, 3 semesters (summer, fall, spring), no part-time, evening, or distance learning – Partner with SAS – Thanks to Huseyin Taniverdi for providing this link Northwestern University School of Continuing Studies online program on predictive analytics – http://www.predictive-analytics.northwestern.edu/curriculum/ http://www.predictive-analytics.northwestern.edu/curriculum – 11 courses, 7 required – “Leadership” course (seems like career management), Capstone Project – TOTAL TUITION EXPENSE $47,360 - $48,160
