Modern businesses rely on well-educated professionals who can effectively use data to enhance and support decision-making processes. This course provides students with a foundation in the fundamental analytical and statistical tools to enable analysis and decision-making which are widely used in organizations. Topics include an introduction to statistics, managing data, and analyzing data using descriptive statistics, probability, chi-square test, correlation, t-test, analysis of variance, and linear regression. The focus is on creating, interpreting, and reporting results. We teach the course from an applied perspective and include a software-use component to enable students to gain hands-on experience with conducting statistical analysis using spreadsheets & statistical software.
