AI & Analytics – Major

AI & Analytics

At Menlo College, we know that today’s professionals need more than business savvy, they need to speak the language of data. Our AI & Analytics major equips students with the tools to turn big data into smart decisions. From understanding how firms and consumers behave to uncovering patterns, predicting trends, and crafting compelling stories with data, students graduate ready to lead in a data-driven world.

The AI & Analytics Major prepares students for positions involving data management, visualization, descriptive, predictive, and prescriptive modeling, and communication of business insights across a variety of industries.
