    Looking to freshen your résumé and improve your earning potential? You are in exactly the right place at exactly the right time. A 2011 McKinsey report estimates there will be 140,000 to 190,000 unfilled positions of U.S. data analytics experts by 2018. In response, universities are scrambling to improve their existing degree programs and create entirely new offerings. We’ve listed 23 of these programs below.
    Choosing a Program
    Does it provide the skills you need?

    Some programs target fields such as business analytics; others specifically state they teach R and Python. For more on helpful skill sets, check out our blog post on data scientist foundations.
    Can you work it into your schedule?

    Although plenty of universities now offer a blend of evening, weekend and online classes, many of the programs mentioned here still require you to be present in class to complete your master’s degree.
    Are there internships or real-world practicums?

    Unless you’re on your way to a doctorate, this is going to be one of the most important investments in your career. Look for programs that connect you to industries and opportunities.
    Will it get you the job?

    The proof is in the numbers. If you can’t find it on the program’s website, ask about the percentage of graduates who have received employment offers or promotions.

    We’ve also compiled a separate listing of 21 top schools offering Master’s in Business Analytics programs, which you can find here.Data Analytics is the technical term, but everyone knows it a Big Data. Actually, “everyone” isn’t quite true – Big Data has been called “the fastest-growing job market you’ve never heard of” by the Globe and Mail, and “the Next Frontier” by McKinsey Global Institute. In other words, not many people know what it means, no one knows exactly where it’s going, and there are definitely not enough people doing it. It’s an exciting time, with projected employee shortages estimated well into the millions, so getting into the field now means making a career path where few have trod and no one is likely to get in your way.
    Recommended Online Data Management Programs
    Colorado Technical University - Doctorate in Big Data Analytics
    Southern New Hampshire University - MS in IT: Database Design Concentration
    Colorado Technical University - MS in CS: Database Systems

    Big Data involves the collection, sorting, analysis, and communication of data, the kind that businesses depend on for finding their customers, banks need for keeping track of investments, and government needs to provide services and protect citizens. With so much data massing in computer systems all over the world, human workers are still needed to make sense of it all. That’s where the data analyst comes in.
