Quantitative Business Analysis Major

Bachelor of Business Administration

The Quantitative Business Analysis major (QBA) provides mathematically talented students with cutting-edge, hands-on training in analytical tools and business decision modeling that are in high demand by employers today. The interdisciplinary QBA major consists of courses in data analysis, information technology, quantitative modeling, and mathematics, providing a foundation for analytical careers such as financial engineering, risk management, actuarial science, market research, and management consulting. Students are required to take additional mathematics courses in calculus and statistics which constitute an In-depth sequence in Mathematics which is applied to the University Core. An important part if the QBA major is the career concentration in a business function, such as finance or marketing. This offers students sufficient flexibility to build a minor or a second major.
