Fundamentals of Business Analytics - MGMT220

Growing quantities of data collected by business, government, the internet and social media provide opportunities for better management and a better society through evidence-based decision-making and the provision of new services. This unit introduces students to quantitative techniques and approaches to achieve these goals. Students will gain hands-on experience with software tools to analyse and present quantitative data. Students will be introduced to the discovery and analysis of social networks, social trends, and relationships amongst industry factors using spreadsheets and data visualisation software. The unit thus is an introduction to the technical and philosophical skills required, and the many applications of business analytics.
