Associate for Decision Intelligence and Analytics University at Buffalo, United States
Session Abstract: This session will feature the University at Buffalo (UB) Analytics Team’s innovative approach to undergraduate curriculum analytics. In partnership with the Undergraduate Education Office, an analytics strategy was developed to transform raw data into actionable intelligence for enhanced decision support. Central to this strategy are curated datasets, visual analytics, and continuous collaboration with campus stakeholders to inform and refine both data and visual designs. Attendees will learn how advanced analytics are applied for areas such as course-demand forecasting, degree-requirement monitoring, enrollment-pattern recognition, and more. Key takeaways include data-blending techniques, leveraging Tableau for visual analytics, and forging partnerships. Together this strategy has helped strengthen decision intelligence at UB in supporting student success and outcomes.
