Student Learning Outcomes

At the successful completion of this course, students will be able to:

2. Understand how to apply appropriate statistical tools to describe the data and the relationships among the variables and to prepare appropriate graphs, charts, and other means of visual display. This includes demonstrating the ability to test hypotheses about the data and the relationships among the variables.
3. Demonstrate the ability to formulate statistically acceptable models of the data and its relationships in order to identify trends and patterns under both historical and projected scenarios.
4. Demonstrate critical and analytical thinking skills to solving real-world business problems by developing and communicate actionable insights from the historical analysis and predictive model building results in both visual and written form.
5. Demonstrate understanding of the relationship of data analysis to corporate and business level strategy and decision-making.
