MS Business Analytics Online+ Degree Program

The MS Business Analytics - Online+ program enables students to get their Master’s degree via ourÌýnew online+ modalityÌýinvolvingÌýthe delivery of short, compelling videos that students can watch and re-watch whenever they want. Online+ students will also engage directly with an instructor and other remote students during remote synchronous lab sessions, which are designed to complement video content. This allows for direct engagement when problem-solving and learning new skills from a particular course. These sessions are set to deliver via Zoom at established dates and times after 5pm.

Designed for working professionals, the Online+ option allows students to enroll part-time and complete the program over a longer period of time. Students planning to complete the degree in one academic year cannot work full-time. The expectation is that students are working while managing a full-time workload, thus progressing through the MS degree on a part-time basis. The program follows the same curriculum provided on campus. Degree-seeking students start the program in July, and complete the program in two years. Many courses are only offered in specific semesters.

Note: The Online+ Program has the same application deadlines as the in-person program.
