Business in Practice: Data analytics

Code:

MM1F28

Convenor:

DR Markos Kyritsis

Summary:

Acquiring, managing, and analysing data is an important business activity that allows organisations to make strategic use of their data assets. Analysing historical data can give companies insight on how to optimise a wide range of functions related to accounting and management. Furthermore, constructing predictive models can facilitate the process of classifying future events and making informed data-driven decisions. This introductory module aims to expose students to key concepts in data analytics by introducing two stages of data analytics (a) descriptive analytics and (b) predictive analytics, as well as visualisation techniques for qualitatively summarising data.

The focus of this module will be less on the underlying mathematical and statistical concepts and more on forming a working knowledge of the methods and assumptions for using statistical methods given certain parameters. Key concepts that will be covered include: types of data; types of distributions (with an emphasis on the normal distribution); analysing the differences between means using parametric and non-parametric tests; regression models; and data visualisation. The workshops will give students experience in using an industry standard programming language, as well as GUI-based tools, thus providing them with the opportunity to choose the most appropriate method for their own future employability needs.
