In addition to coursework, MS Data Analytics & Business Computing (MSDABC) students had the opportunity to visit two companies this summer while in New York. The visits are designed to expose students to companies, individuals, and industries related to their studies and future careers.

First, students visited Brooklyn Brewery located in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. After touring the facility to learn how the beer is made and getting to taste various samples, students met with the company's data analyst to understand the role of data in growing a beer business.
