Data Analytics

Be at the forefront
of business growth

What You'll Learn

Data analytics is the practice of turning raw, messy data into clear answers by identifying patterns, trends, and insights that help organizations make smarter decisions, grow, and solve problems. In Ivy Tech's Data Analytics program, you'll learn how to collect and organize data, ask the right questions of it, and tell the story the numbers reveal. No prior computer experience is required. As a Data Analytics student, you will learn to: 

  • Collect, store, integrate, retrieve, and analyze data from many different sources. 

  • Design and build databases, and apply database administration and management skills. 

  • Write queries and work with Structured Query Language (SQL) and other analytical languages. 

  • Visualize data and build clear, compelling reports using industry-standard tools. 

  • Apply statistics and analytical methods to large, structured, and unstructured data sets. 

  • Use the four core approaches to analytics — descriptive (what happened), diagnostic (why it happened), predictive (what's likely next), and prescriptive (what to do about it). 

  • Turn business intelligence into a story that decision-makers can act on. 

  • Apply database security, data governance, and backup and recovery best practices. 

  • Write scripts and use programming (including Python) to query data and automate tasks. 

  • Explore cloud foundations and artificial intelligence essentials. 

  • Pair technical skills with business acumen to communicate your insights effectively. 

  • Prepare for and earn industry certifications that employers recognize. 

Career Options

Data analysts sort through information and make meaning out of the mess — uncovering the patterns, trends, and correlations that help businesses set goals, improve processes, and grow. They use spreadsheets, databases, visualization and reporting tools, data mining programs, and programming languages to do it. 

Because nearly every organization runs on data, the skills travel widely. You could work in business, finance, insurance, healthcare, government, manufacturing, science, or tech — on a large analytics team or as the go-to analyst for a smaller company. Many roles offer both in-person and remote opportunities. 

It's also a fast-growing field. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment of data scientists is projected to grow 34% from 2024 to 2034, as organizations lean more heavily on data-driven decisions. Roles you could step into include: 

  • Data Analyst 

  • Business Intelligence Analyst 

  • Business Analyst 

  • Database Administrator 

  • Data Visualization Specialist 

  • Data Warehouse Architect 

  • Reporting Analyst 

  • Financial Analyst 

  • Healthcare Data Analyst 

  • HR Analyst 

  • Logistics Analyst 

  • Market Research Analyst 

  • Marketing Analyst 

  • Operations Analyst

Applying to Ivy Tech is Free & Easy

The Ivy Tech application is free and easy—you don’t need a certain test score, GPA, or class rank to get started at Ivy Tech. Applying takes about 10-15 minutes and can be completed entirely online.

No Application Deadlines

Ivy Tech does not have a deadline for admission. Our 8-week class sessions start throughout the year—in January, March, June, August, and October—and there is no hard deadline for applying for any of the start dates. It's important, though, to apply early enough that you'll be able to complete all the degree planning, financial aid, and registration activities that need to happen before your first day. We recommend you apply about one month before you intend to start classes. See upcoming start dates

Steps to Apply

(1) Apply to Ivy Tech

If you’ve never applied to Ivy Tech Community College before (or if it’s been two years since you last attended classes here), your first step is to apply to Ivy Tech. You can apply online or in person. To apply in person, reach out to your local admissions team and arrange a meeting. Or, stop by any campus on any Tuesday for Tuesdays@TheTech to receive personal assistance with applying and registering for classes.

Apply Now

(2) Submit Assessment Documents

After you submit your application, you'll be asked to upload documentation—such as SAT/ACT/PSAT scores or high school and college transcripts—that can assess your readiness for college-level coursework and help us make sure you are taking classes that are the right fit for you. How to upload assessment documents

If you don't have your scores or transcripts at your fingertips, don’t worry. Go ahead and submit your application. You can go back to upload assessment documents at any time until the end of the term for which you applied.

(3) Look for a Confirmation Email

Once your application is processed, you will receive a confirmation email at the email address provided on your application. Typically the email will arrive within 1-2 business days of submission, but during peak processing periods (April-June) could take up to 5-10 business days.

The email will contain instructions on how to register for classes, as well as important information regarding your Ivy Tech student portal (MyIvy account), tuition, payment options, and more.

(4) Create an Account in MyIvy

MyIvy is Ivy Tech's online student portal. Students use MyIvy to check e-mail, register for classes, pay tuition, manage financial aid, get the latest news and announcements, and much more. MyIvy also contains "QuickLinks" to the Ivy Tech websites and online tools you will use most often. Learn more about MyIvy

For first-time user instructions and other MyIvy tips: View/Print MyIvy Help Sheet

(5) Course Placement

Before you can register for classes you will need to submit documentation or complete an assessment test. Your test scores can help us determine the best English and math starting classes for you. See the Test Score Course Placement Chart

If you submitted assessment documentation during the application process, your advisor will likely be able to work with those documents to determine course placement and you won't need to take any further steps. If you don't have any of those documents or the scores don't meet minimum thresholds, don’t worry! Your advisor will direct you to complete our free Knowledge Assessment to help develop your customized learning path to better prepare you for courses. 

(6) Register for Classes

Once you have completed the steps above, you may register for classes. Ivy Tech students register for courses using the Schedule Builder tool which can be accessed within MyIvy. If you are a new, first-time Ivy Tech student, we recommend that you meet with your advisor who will help you develop your Academic Completion Plan and help you sign up for courses that are the best fit for you.

For a complete list of registration steps, including detailed registration steps, deadlines, and information about holds, withdrawals, waitlists, and refunds, visit our Registration 101 page.

(7) Pay Your Tuition

After registering for your courses, your bill can be viewed in your MyIvy account > Student Dashboard- > View/Pay Balance. Payments can also be made in your MyIvy account. For complete information about payments, including payment options, payment plans, how to make immediate payments, due dates, information about refunds, and more, visit our Payments page.
