Read this definition of the uses of business engineering in developing and implementing business solutions for human-technology interaction. What solutions will be needed as data gets "bigger" and more complex? Will analysts be able to find ways to capture and manage all that is relevant, or will they have to live in constant fear of missing that "golden nugget" of source material that would have made all the difference in their findings?
Education
In Chile
The University of Chile offers a master's program in Business Engineering (M. Sc.) since 2003. As in Germany and Belgium the program combines management theory, business administration, finance, economics, science, and technology. The program consists of a theoretical as well as a practical part during which the students develop a project for an organization in the private or public sector. The program is designed to be completed in four semesters. Hundreds of projects have been developed since 2003, producing a validation of the proposed approach to design and a generation of knowledge that has been formalized and applied in new projects. Graduates are awarded with the academic degree "Master of Science in Business Engineering" (MBE) after taking the courses of the program and successfully completing their projects.
