Land a great job
Graduate Management Admission Council research says that analytics students are the most in-demand of all business graduates, and 70% of employers surveyed plan to hire more analytics graduates over the next year.
The most valuable lesson that I have learned in data analytics is to be inquisitive. Data analytics has so many aspects to it, and the analytics faculty does a great job of giving a well-rounded education on all of those aspects. Since new studies and methods are coming out, there is always more to learn. The best part about this is how the faculty at JBU are always happy to answer questions and advance your learning whether that is in the classroom, during office hours, or over coffee.
