GRADUATE CERTIFICATE IN DECISION ANALYSIS
We offer a Certificate in Decision Analysis for the first 24 credits of our Master in Decision Analysis program. The certificate can be completed in 12 months (three semesters) and will equip participants with important decision making skills with shorter time commitment than the full graduate program.
The graduate curriculum focuses on utilizing big data to inform decisions of consequence. With courses covering complex analysis, research methods, and information-based decision-making, you will gain the interdisciplinary knowledge and practical skills. The thesis enables you to apply your learning to a substantive topic of your choosing.
To help you advance your career, Minerva will help you identify your goals, explore possible paths, and develop a realistic plan to achieve them through career resources, personalized 1:1 and group life coaching and talent development support.
Minerva’s active learning approach, based on the science of learning, enables you to deeply understand course material and apply it to professional contexts, equipping you with universal decision-making and problem-solving skills.
All classes are conducted using Minerva's fully active learning methodology via Forum™ in small virtual discussion-based seminars, encouraging active participation and deep collaboration, and enabling flexibility for working professionals from around the world.
