This certificate is designed to complement graduate degree programs offered within the Darla Moore School of Business. It is designed to enhance the career opportunities of students by providing critical skills related to business analytics. Requirements for admission are the same as those for the Moore School MBA program.

To obtain this graduate certificate, students must complete a 4-course sequence in Business Analytics, with a GPA of 3.0 or better in these four courses. There are three distinct channels through which this certificate can be delivered.

  1. As an option for AMBA, IMBA and PMBA students. The certificate would appear on the graduate transcript of these students.
  2. As a standalone (non-degree) option, for which students pay a per-course fee and take the four courses with the AMBAs/IMBAs/PMBAs. All four courses must be completed within a certain time period, e.g. 24 months.
  3. As an accelerated, customized executive education program
