Data analytics is increasingly important across business, government, and every organization, driven by increasing availability of data and analytical processing capacity. The results of the data analysis leads to improved decision making. As a result, skills in managing, cleaning, analyzing and visualizing data are increasingly valuable. The Business Analysis minor attempts to capture some of these skills by introducing students to data management and data processing, mostly using Excel. Although there are many other skills, the scope is limited to avoid extra resources, make the minor accessible to more students, and target Excel, which is a benchmark software in business.
