Introduction to Regression and Data Science. Learn to explore, visualize, model, evaluate, and communicate data in a reproducible manner. Gain hands on experience with real data from a variety of disciplines. The course will focus on the statistical computing language R.
Seminar in Mathematical Business Analysis. The main purpose of this seminar is to develop the capability to apply quantitative knowledge to real and ill-defined problems. It tries to bridge the gap between the theory of quantitative decision approaches such as management science/operations research, information systems, and statistics (now mainly collected in the Business Analytics field), with the application of these approaches to the solution of actual business problems.
Causal Inference. From Correlation to Causation. The goal of this course is to give students the skills needed to conduct analyses and communicate results when causality is the goal. Students will learn how to implement causal inference techniques including matching and weighting, evaluate assumptions, and conduct sensitivity analyses.
