Business Analytics & Big Data
With the explosion of computers and the Internet, the world is increasingly awash in data. Every minute, something like 48 hours of videos are created in YouTube, and more than 100,000 Tweets are sent. For executives, this means that there is a huge amount of information available about customers, suppliers, and markets — which can be sorted and then used to make better business decisions. Executive programs in business analytics or big data can help managers determine how to collect this data, and the best ways to use it strategically.
