Data munging will be the core of this course, where students will learn how to clean the data, handle missing values, perform data transformations and manipulations, and prepare it for analysis. Through learning data visualization, exploratory techniques, and summarizing methods students will become competent to perform exploratory data analysis. These techniques are typically applied before any modeling begins and can help to confirm the validity of the original business question or to refine it. They are also stepping stones in informing the development of more complex statistical models. The course will conclude with creating data reports and interactive dashboards, two major communication tools required in any data science project.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"collapsible course\">\n\t\t\t\t<button\n\t\t\t\t\tid=\"ba810-toggle\"\n\t\t\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"collapsible__toggle\"\n\t\t\t\t\taria-expanded=\"false\"\n\t\t\t\t\taria-controls=\"ba810-content\"\n\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"collapsible__icon\"><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<h6 class=\"collapsible__heading\">Supervised Machine Learning <\/h6>\n\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t\t<div\n\t\t\t\t\tid=\"ba810-content\"\n\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"collapsible__content\"\n\t\t\t\t\trole=\"region\"\n\t\t\t\t\taria-labelledby=\"ba810-toggle\"\n\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"collapsible__body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"course__code\">COURSE CODE: ba810<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"course__description\">The internet has become a ubiquitous channel for reaching consumers and gathering massive amounts of business-intelligence data.

Data munging will be the core of this course, where students will learn how to clean the data, handle missing values, perform data transformations and manipulations, and prepare it for analysis. Through learning data visualization, exploratory techniques, and summarizing methods students will become competent to perform exploratory data analysis. These techniques are typically applied before any modeling begins and can help to confirm the validity of the original business question or to refine it. They are also stepping stones in informing the development of more complex statistical models. The course will conclude with creating data reports and interactive dashboards, two major communication tools required in any data science project.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"collapsible course\">\n\t\t\t\t<button\n\t\t\t\t\tid=\"ba810-toggle\"\n\t\t\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"collapsible__toggle\"\n\t\t\t\t\taria-expanded=\"false\"\n\t\t\t\t\taria-controls=\"ba810-content\"\n\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"collapsible__icon\"><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<h6 class=\"collapsible__heading\">Supervised Machine Learning <\/h6>\n\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t\t<div\n\t\t\t\t\tid=\"ba810-content\"\n\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"collapsible__content\"\n\t\t\t\t\trole=\"region\"\n\t\t\t\t\taria-labelledby=\"ba810-toggle\"\n\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"collapsible__body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"course__code\">COURSE CODE: ba810<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"course__description\">The internet has become a ubiquitous channel for reaching consumers and gathering massive amounts of business-intelligence data.

The course will begin by discussing randomized controlled trials, the most reliable way of measuring effects, and will move onto other methods that can be used when experiments are not feasible or unavailable. We will learn how to implement these methods in R. Causal inference has become especially important for digital businesses because they are often able to run experiments and to harness \u2018big data\u2019 to make decisions. We will illustrate the methods we learn with examples drawn from digital businesses such as Airbnb, Ebay, and Uber and through topic areas such as price targeting, balancing digital marketplaces, reputation systems, measuring influence in social networks, and algorithmic design.

We will start with simple, comprehensible, few neuron models that we can build from scratch on our devices, and byte by byte grow our skills to understand and manipulate the enterprise-scale networks with complex architectures that are currently used in businesses ranging from Alpha-Go to Tesla. As we explore the mathematical and computational representations of different network architectures, you will obtain a solid understanding of how to choose and customize NN models that fit best to the task at hand, aware of their strengths and challenges, and what these mean for practitioners in business analytics.

Data munging will be the core of this course, where students will learn how to clean the data, handle missing values, perform data transformations and manipulations, and prepare it for analysis. Through learning data visualization, exploratory techniques, and summarizing methods students will become competent to perform exploratory data analysis. These techniques are typically applied before any modeling begins and can help to confirm the validity of the original business question or to refine it. They are also stepping stones in informing the development of more complex statistical models. The course will conclude with creating data reports and interactive dashboards, two major communication tools required in any data science project.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"collapsible course\">\n\t\t\t\t<button\n\t\t\t\t\tid=\"ba810-toggle\"\n\t\t\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"collapsible__toggle\"\n\t\t\t\t\taria-expanded=\"false\"\n\t\t\t\t\taria-controls=\"ba810-content\"\n\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"collapsible__icon\"><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<h6 class=\"collapsible__heading\">Supervised Machine Learning <\/h6>\n\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t\t<div\n\t\t\t\t\tid=\"ba810-content\"\n\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"collapsible__content\"\n\t\t\t\t\trole=\"region\"\n\t\t\t\t\taria-labelledby=\"ba810-toggle\"\n\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"collapsible__body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"course__code\">COURSE CODE: ba810<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"course__description\">The internet has become a ubiquitous channel for reaching consumers and gathering massive amounts of business-intelligence data.

We will learn how to implement these methods in R. Causal inference has become especially important for digital businesses because they are often able to run experiments and to harness \u2018big data\u2019 to make decisions.

Whenever possible, we will draw examples related to global challenges such as climate crisis.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50)\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>BA885: Advanced Analytics II (Applied Optimization)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50)\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"collapsible-group course-list wp-block-amp-course-list\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"collapsible course\">\n\t\t\t\t<button\n\t\t\t\t\tid=\"ba888-toggle\"\n\t\t\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"collapsible__toggle\"\n\t\t\t\t\taria-expanded=\"false\"\n\t\t\t\t\taria-controls=\"ba888-content\"\n\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"collapsible__icon\"><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<h6 class=\"collapsible__heading\">Capstone Project <\/h6>\n\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t\t<div\n\t\t\t\t\tid=\"ba888-content\"\n\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"collapsible__content\"\n\t\t\t\t\trole=\"region\"\n\t\t\t\t\taria-labelledby=\"ba888-toggle\"\n\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"collapsible__body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"course__code\">COURSE CODE: ba888<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"course__description\">The capstone project course will allow students to work on a data project in a team setting.

Data munging will be the core of this course, where students will learn how to clean the data, handle missing values, perform data transformations and manipulations, and prepare it for analysis. Through learning data visualization, exploratory techniques, and summarizing methods students will become competent to perform exploratory data analysis. These techniques are typically applied before any modeling begins and can help to confirm the validity of the original business question or to refine it. They are also stepping stones in informing the development of more complex statistical models.

We will start with simple, comprehensible, few neuron models that we can build from scratch on our devices, and byte by byte grow our skills to understand and manipulate the enterprise-scale networks with complex architectures that are currently used in businesses ranging from Alpha-Go to Tesla. As we explore the mathematical and computational representations of different network architectures, you will obtain a solid understanding of how to choose and customize NN models that fit best to the task at hand, aware of their strengths and challenges, and what these mean for practitioners in business analytics. Whenever possible, we will draw examples related to global challenges such as climate crisis.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50)\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>BA885: Advanced Analytics II (Applied Optimization)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50)\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"collapsible-group course-list wp-block-amp-course-list\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"collapsible course\">\n\t\t\t\t<button\n\t\t\t\t\tid=\"ba888-toggle\"\n\t\t\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"collapsible__toggle\"\n\t\t\t\t\taria-expanded=\"false\"\n\t\t\t\t\taria-controls=\"ba888-content\"\n\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"collapsible__icon\"><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<h6 class=\"collapsible__heading\">Capstone Project <\/h6>\n\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t\t<div\n\t\t\t\t\tid=\"ba888-content\"\n\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"collapsible__content\"\n\t\t\t\t\trole=\"region\"\n\t\t\t\t\taria-labelledby=\"ba888-toggle\"\n\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"collapsible__body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"course__code\">COURSE CODE: ba888<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"course__description\">The capstone project course will allow students to work on a data project in a team setting.

We will learn how to implement these methods in R. Causal inference has become especially important for digital businesses because they are often able to run experiments and to harness \u2018big data\u2019 to make decisions. We will illustrate the methods we learn with examples drawn from digital businesses such as Airbnb, Ebay, and Uber and through topic areas such as price targeting, balancing digital marketplaces, reputation systems, measuring influence in social networks, and algorithmic design.

The course will begin by discussing randomized controlled trials, the most reliable way of measuring effects, and will move onto other methods that can be used when experiments are not feasible or unavailable. We will learn how to implement these methods in R. Causal inference has become especially important for digital businesses because they are often able to run experiments and to harness \u2018big data\u2019 to make decisions. We will illustrate the methods we learn with examples drawn from digital businesses such as Airbnb, Ebay, and Uber and through topic areas such as price targeting, balancing digital marketplaces, reputation systems, measuring influence in social networks, and algorithmic design.

We will draw on a branch of statistics called causal inference that studies when data can be used to measure cause and effect. The course will begin by discussing randomized controlled trials, the most reliable way of measuring effects, and will move onto other methods that can be used when experiments are not feasible or unavailable. We will learn how to implement these methods in R. Causal inference has become especially important for digital businesses because they are often able to run experiments and to harness \u2018big data\u2019 to make decisions. We will illustrate the methods we learn with examples drawn from digital businesses such as Airbnb, Ebay, and Uber and through topic areas such as price targeting, balancing digital marketplaces, reputation systems, measuring influence in social networks, and algorithmic design. We will also use data from other business and social science applications.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"collapsible course\">\n\t\t\t\t<button\n\t\t\t\t\tid=\"ba860-toggle\"\n\t\t\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"collapsible__toggle\"\n\t\t\t\t\taria-expanded=\"false\"\n\t\t\t\t\taria-controls=\"ba860-content\"\n\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"collapsible__icon\"><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<h6 class=\"collapsible__heading\">Topics in Digital Marketing Analytics <\/h6>\n\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t\t<div\n\t\t\t\t\tid=\"ba860-content\"\n\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"collapsible__content\"\n\t\t\t\t\trole=\"region\"\n\t\t\t\t\taria-labelledby=\"ba860-toggle\"\n\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"collapsible__body\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"course__code\">COURSE CODE: ba860<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"course__description\">This is an introductory course on Digital Marketing emphasizing analytics that seeks to familiarize students with digital marketing tactics.

We will draw on a branch of statistics called causal inference that studies when data can be used to measure cause and effect. The course will begin by discussing randomized controlled trials, the most reliable way of measuring effects, and will move onto other methods that can be used when experiments are not feasible or unavailable. We will learn how to implement these methods in R. Causal inference has become especially important for digital businesses because they are often able to run experiments and to harness \u2018big data\u2019 to make decisions. We will illustrate the methods we learn with examples drawn from digital businesses such as Airbnb, Ebay, and Uber and through topic areas such as price targeting, balancing digital marketplaces, reputation systems, measuring influence in social networks, and algorithmic design.
