Five decades ago, Terry broke new academic ground when it introduced the Department of Management Information Systems. Today the concepts pioneered by these faculty members are used in every discipline, and students must be fluent in analytics to succeed in today’s data-driven environment.
Terry is expanding analytics curriculum and experiential opportunities across the college, including in the departments of Finance and Economics, as well as our industry-leading Master of Marketing Research (MMR) and Master of Science in Business Analytics.
We also continue supporting groundbreaking research in the areas of data and analytics. Our efforts ensure Terry students and faculty can analyze, interpret and disseminate knowledge in an ever-evolving world.
