Business Analytics Minor Open to all UK Students

The Gatton College of Business and Economics has opened its Business Analytics Minor to all University of Kentucky students.

"Business analytics is one of our fastest-growing minors. Almost 70% of employers want graduates who have analytic skills, but only 23% of educators say graduates have these skills. In our program, you'll learn how to view data, analyze it, sort through it, filter it, and make decisions based on the findings," shares Tom Groleau, director of the Business Analytics Center.
