Today the Institute hosted a visit by a contingent of Louisiana State University faculty from the Department of Applied Statistics and the Department of Information Systems and Decision Sciences, for a discussion of the MSA curriculum. Louisiana State is considering plans to revamp an existing M.S. in Information Systems and Decision Sciences into an analytics-focused degree modeled after the MSA. The LSU faculty met with Institute staff, faculty and a panel of MSA students for a daylong discussion about how the MSA degree is structured and delivered.
