Recommendations for a Business Analytics Program - EthanMDFN - 08-01-2026
Hello! I asked a while back about advice on choosing a taxation program and I received a lot of helpful advice and am happy with the choice I made. However, recent career developments have pushed me towards the audit side of accounting. So, I am looking to kinda balance it out a little (and since it is somewhat about business processes I am not currently looking at pure data programs). Currently, I think that business analytics would be the best (only hard criteria for me is AACSB and online). So, I was wondering if anyone had any programs they would recommend or advice, especially from the perspective of a non data science career. Thanks!

I've heard pretty good things about BU's Business Analytics program, plus, it's a highly recognized school (more so with Boston College) and I'm sure that this program would partner well with an accounting degree
