Greetings,
This semester the Operations and Information Management (OPIM) Department in the School of Business has launched the Analytics Minor. This minor is available to all undergraduates at the University of Connecticut, with the exception of Business Data Analytics (BDA) majors. This minor is designed to provide an opportunity for students to gain an understanding of analytics, which is not only a growing discipline, but applicable to all fields. We wanted to reach out to give you an idea of requirements if you were interested in pursuing this. The full Plan of Study is available at http://undergrad.business.uconn.edu/minors/ and click on the Analytics button. For the purpose of choosing classes next week here are the required course (At least one section of all of these are available next semester):
- OPIM 3221 – Business Database Systems
- OPIM 3802 – Data and Text Mining
- OPIM 3803 – Spreadsheet Modeling for Business Analysis
- OPIM 3801 – Project Management or OPIM 4895 (we have two sections of this special topics in the spring – Gamification in Business or Data Visualization) – any one of these three classes will fulfill this requirement
