Analytics and Information Technology

Here, you’ll learn by doing. Many of the world’s largest tech companies call New York City home, allowing you to have hands-on internship and networking opportunities so you can gain the skills and experiences employers seek. And in addition to the lively energy of New York, you’ll have a tight-knit, supportive campus community, eager for you to thrive. 

You’ll take courses at the cutting edge of data analytics and technology. And you’ll take foundational courses like AI and Data-Driven Marketplaces, where you’ll learn how AI and data shape modern markets—and how to use these tools to find business opportunities. In Understanding Audiences and Users, you’ll examine how digital platforms measure users and how best to handle critical questions about policies and ethics. 

We also offer a range of electives, allowing you to explore your interests—and find new ones—including Sports Analytics and Business Analytics. You could even explore the intersection of technology and media—and earn a secondary concentration in digital media—through courses like the Business of New Media and Social Media.

With New York City as your college town, you’ll have unmatched access to some of the biggest names in tech and business. Data and technology are at the heart of all businesses, from the smallest startups to the biggest banks. Here are just some of the places our students have recently interned:

• Deloitte
• Google
• Goldman Sachs
• JPMorgan Chase
• Wells Fargo

When you graduate, you’ll be prepared for careers at the intersection of business, analytics, and systems, including roles like an AI solutions analyst, data analyst, technology solutions developer, and customer success manager.
