As the process for transforming data into insight is inherently multi-disciplinary, Business Analytics lies at the intersection of Computer Science, Statistics, Applied Mathematics (particularly Optimization), and Business. The Department of Business Analytics (https://tippie.uiowa.edu/business-analytics ) in the Tippie College of Business has been at the forefront of research in Analytics for decades and, as the recipient of the 2021 INFORMS UPS George D. Smith Prize (https://tippie.uiowa.edu/news/tippie-analytics-wins-major-international-analytics-award ), was recently honored as a top department in the world for preparing students for careers in analytics.
