Haslam College of Business
Center for Applied Business Analytics (CABA)
The Center for Applied Business Analytics aims to provide our business analytics students with the communication skills essential to succeed in business.
Businesses searching for data analytics solutions will connect with teams of undergraduates working under a faculty mentor. Students will tackle this real-world problem solving during their analytics capstone course.
The center will reinforce the skills students learn in the classroom by emphasizing writing, oral and presentation skills. This training will allow students to bridge the gap between a strong analytics background and the communication foundation to relay and interpret data for the business world.
