About the Opportunity:
Northeastern University's College of Professional Studies invites applicants for a non-tenure track part-time faculty position to teach in the Master of Professional Studies in Analytics, located on-ground in Seattle, WA.
The mission of the Master of Professional Studies in Analytics program is to foster foundational analytics skills among working professionals, including preparing data, conducting data analysis such as regression, forecasting, optimization, data visualization, and data story telling.
