Business Analyst and Systems Analyst

From wikipedia:
A business analyst (BA) is responsible for analyzing the business needs of their clients and stakeholders to help identify business problems and propose solutions. Within the systems development life cycle domain, the BA typically performs a liaison function between the business side of an enterprise and the information technology department or external service providers.

Common alternate titles are business systems analyst, systems analyst, and functional analyst, although some organizations may differentiate between the above titles and corresponding responsibilities.

Systems analysis' is the science dealing with analysis of complex, large scale systems and the interactions within those systems. This field is closely related to operations research.
