Sister board thread: https://www.degreeinfo.com/index.php?thr...ity.63961/I think folks with the data science, or possibly data analytics masters degree would be competitive for the PhD program, but I don't think that the MBA folks, even those with the business analytics concentration would be competitive. They don't have enough data science courses.
If I was an Eastern MBA grad I probably look more at Edgewood's DBA. It's a little bit more money, but still a great value. It would be interesting if a version that's more focused towards business, perhaps even a DBA, is rolled out at Eastern in the coming years.
