Advanced data analysis, predictive modeling, computer-based data mining, and marketing, web, text, and risk analytics are just some of the areas of study offered in the program. As a student in the Master of Science in Predictive Analytics program, you will:

  • Prepare for leadership-level career opportunities by focusing on statistical concepts and practical application
  • Learn from distinguished Northwestern faculty and from the seasoned industry experts who are redefining how data improve decision-making and boost ROI

Just so you know, libraries schools were offering mostly online degrees a decade or so ago. Nice to see other disciplines catching up. 😉

It would be interesting to see short courses in subject analysis, as in subject identity and the properties that compose a particular identity, in specific domains.
