The Business Analytics track is designed for students who want to analyze data to solve business problems by equipping students with skills for transforming data into information and actionable insights, improving business processes, and helping shape organizational strategy. The Cybersecurity track develops students to build, test, and analyze systems to keep data and information safe from hackers and other external threats.
