Trine University’s Master of Science in Business Analytics degree program, offered through the College of Graduate and Professional Studies, is sixth in recent national rankings of most affordable programs in that field.
The rankings, compiled by AnalyticsDegrees.org, rate the top programs in the nation by total program cost, online pricing, program focus and accreditation.
With tuition slightly over $17,000, the organization said Trine University offers a high-quality business analytics education at one of the most affordable price points in the country.
“It dives straight into coursework in statistics and quantitative methods, analytics tools and technologies, data science and data mining and visualization,” the ranking notes. “On the business side, you’ll also receive training in financial modeling, operations and supply chain analytics, corporate finance and project management.”
Keirsten Eberts, vice president of online and international studies at Trine, said the ranking affirms the quality of the MSBA as well as Trine’s other graduate business offerings.
“Our programs serve graduate learners by offering affordability and quality as well as convenience,” she said. “We’re pleased to earn this recognition and look forward to serving a growing number of students seeking to enhance their skills with a master’s degree.”
Trine University’s annual Trine Day, a celebration of the university as well as an opportunity to support its mission, set records for number of donors and funds raised, bringing in more than $160,000 for scholarships, academic and athletic needs, and student organizations.
Trine University students learned about opportunities available with the Purdue Data Mine during a special presentation on April 10 in the Mark and Sarah Music/Ruoff Mortgage Esports Arena.
Trine University has received a lead gift from Dr. Rick L. James, alumnus and chair of the university’s Board of Trustees, and his wife, Dr. Vicki L. James, for a new building to house Trine’s business school.
