About the Program

The Master of Science in Analytics (MSA) is an interdisciplinary degree program with roots in the Scheller College of Business, the College of Computing, and the College of Engineering.

By blending the strengths of these programs, graduates learn to integrate skills in a unique and interdisciplinary way that yields deep insights into analytics problems. With the Georgia Tech Master’s in Analytics degree, graduates enter the workplace with the computing, business, statistics, and operations research skills needed to immediately identify, analyze, and solve analytics problems for better business intelligence and decision support.

The school also offers a dual MBA/MSA degree; students can complete both degrees in the same two years as a standard MBA. Students interested in the MBA/MSA dual degree should apply to both programs, and notify them if applying for both.

Program Format and Schedule

The MS Analytics curriculum is a total of 36 credit-hours. The interdisciplinary core includes 15 hours of coursework across business, computing, statistics, and operations research. Each student has 15 hours of electives to satisfy one of the specialized tracks to give them depth in an analytics area of specialization: Analytical Tools, Business Analytics, and Computational Data Analytics. Elective choices can be personalized to support individual career goals. The final piece of the curriculum is an applied analytics practicum, in which students work with companies and organizations on real analytics problems.

Instruction is fully online, with the ability to connect with instructors, fellow learners, and the material itself using multi-platform digital learning tools.

The program is designed to be completed in two years, though students can take more or less time as they need.
