IT business analysts solve business problems with new IT solutions that increase efficiency and productivity of existing processes and reduce operating costs. In this Information Technology: Business Analysis program, students will develop strategic thinking and business problem-solving skills that will help them enable change and design successful operational models. Students will learn how to analyze, identify and document a business or stakeholder’s needs and plan, manage and monitor proposed solutions to business challenges from dealing with outdated legacy systems and changing technologies to broken processes. The role of a business analyst is constantly evolving and changing. As organizations increasingly rely on data-driven decision-making, the market for skilled data analysts will only continue to grow worldwide. Graduates can expect to start as junior analysts working with information technology consulting firms, public and private sector information technology departments, or self-employed consultants. There are also opportunities to pursue specialized functions such as business continuity, which focuses on recovery strategies to ensure companies can resume operations as quickly as possible after a major disruption such as a fire or cyberattack.
