The University of New Brunswick: Embracing the changing world through innovative programs offered in innovative markets

Students wishing to maintain a competitive edge must invest in programs designed to provide them the tools required to thrive in today’s dynamic world. The proliferation of information technology and mass computing has propelled a data driven economy. Companies who become the most adept at efficiently processing information have emerged as the winners. The past decade has seen a rampant thrust in the adoption of enterprise solutions and other data analysis tools as companies strive to find their place in the new economy. These companies are seeking employees who not only understand the importance of information and data, but know how to translate them into solid business results. It is on this premise that the University of New Brunswick (UNB) combined its strengths in business management and data analysis education to develop the Bachelor of Information Science (BISc) degree.
 

The new 4-year BISc degree at UNB is specifically designed to develop students’ ability to scientifically approach the managerial problems facing today’s skilled employees.
