The business leaders of tomorrow face an exciting challenge. To innovate and prosper, they need to solve problems and make informed decisions. Just as important, they need to manage technology and data.
La Salle’s brand new program in Business Systems and Analytics prepares students to do both. It prepares them for careers as business intelligence analysts, business applications consultants, data warehousing specialists, and sports analytics managers, among others.
Here’s why our program is a top choice for students eager to succeed in the Information Age:
-
Our curriculum recognizes that every informed business decision is powered by good data and efficient information systems. In courses that mix data analytics skills (data mining, for example) with information systems (understanding computer technology), students will learn to make the most of data and business systems.
-
Students learn from professors who believe in human potential. Our faculty members consider themselves mentors as well as teachers. As a result, they strive to help all students pursue their dreams and ambitions.
-
Our program capitalizes on the City of Philadelphia’s lively business scene. Students venture into the business world to work side-by-side with professionals who are harvesting data, analyzing its import, and using it to make informed decisions.
-
In addition, business leaders visit our classrooms to share their insight with students. Their presentations demonstrate how textbook knowledge can improve business performance.
-
Thanks to an emphasis on experiential learning, our students will leave here with the technical, analytical, and managerial skills to collect, manage, and analyze data. They will know how to make decisions efficiently and effectively. In short, they’ll be ready to launch a fascinating career.
