The Institute was founded on a principle of transparency in providing prospective applicants with relevant data on student outcomes. We believe in letting the numbers speak for themselves. The employment report is a full census of our annual placement results. It is published promptly upon graduation each year (May 15th). We invite you to download the employment report and to inquire with any questions you may have about it.

Bold denotes employers that succeeded in hiring one or more candidates, and (*) for employers that hired more than one candidate. The list includes conditional offers (i.e., those requiring security clearance) made by agencies of the federal government only in those instances where the candidate was cleared for employment. |
Notes: Data with respect to salaries and bonuses are self-reported by graduates (without anonymity) and whenever possible verified by the employer in cases where placement is arranged by the Institute (i.e., most candidates). All job placements are full-time paid positions. Data are made public here to guide prospective students and employers. Annual base salary figures do not include signing bonuses, annual bonuses, equity or options, relocation allowances, or other forms of one-time compensation guaranteed upon signing. One job is contingent on passing security clearance. The MSA is a STEM-qualified degree. International graduates are eligible for Optional Practical Training (OPT). Commencement is typically held on the first weekend in May, prior to the university’s official graduation date. Employment results are reported each year on or about May 15 for consistency.
DISCLAIMER: The Institute has a proven track record for placing graduates in the analytics profession, but it does not under any circumstance offer a guarantee of employment upon completion of the MSA degree.
