STAT 5602. Visualization: The Art of Numbers and the Psychology of Persuasion. 3 Credit Hours.

Organizations are collecting an unprecedented volume of data, and analysts are producing information from data using analytics and models. None of the information that is extracted from the data is usable unless it can be effectively communicated. In this course, we will begin with the fundamental questions of communication: Who is the audience? What is the information? What is the goal? Using these questions to focus our thoughts, we will explore the techniques that allow you to select appropriate information and to craft a narrative that clearly and effectively communicates this information using visual elements. Producing good visual displays is a combination of art and science and compromise between function and form. We will discuss how humans process and encode visual and textual information in relation to selecting an appropriate visual display, and we will cover topics including: exploratory data analyses, charts, tables, graphics, static and dynamic displays, effective presentations, multimedia content, animation, and dashboard design. Examples and cases will be used from a variety of industries.

Repeatability: This course may not be repeated for additional credits.

STAT 5603. Statistical Learning and Data Mining. 3 Credit Hours.

This course is designed to change the way you think about data. Numerous firms have demonstrated that the ability to reliably extract managerially-relevant information from data is a potent and enduring source of competitive advantage, a realization that transforms data into an asset that can be a primary source of competitive advantage. Competition is pushing organizations to "mine" (or extract) these insights faster, with greater reliability, and in ways that maximize the probability of implementation. In this course we will explore how statistical learning and data mining techniques can be used to improve decision-making and profitability. The course will provide an overview of the fundamental principles and techniques of data mining, and we will use real-world examples, cases, and "hands-on" techniques to demonstrate data-mining techniques in context, to develop your analytic thinking, and to develop your model building acumen.

Repeatability: This course may not be repeated for additional credits.

Pre-requisites: Minimum grade of B- in (STAT 5001, (STAT 5301 and MIS 5301), or (STAT 5401 and MIS 5401))

STAT 5604. Experiments: Knowledge by Design. 3 Credit Hours.

How do we know which policies, strategies, and decisions work, which should be continued, and which should be changed? Organizations frequently implement strategies and changes, only to find that they fail to produce their intended effects. Thus, there is a gap between what "sounded good" and what was "right." Ultimately, the gold standard for assessing what is "right" is a controlled experiment, which is the least utilized technique in the corporate arsenal. Experiments provide a structured way to construct a feedback loop that allows us to identify errors in our beliefs and to ascertain the real drivers of outcomes. In this course, we will explore how to use this "test and learn" paradigm to answer questions such as how advertising should be designed and targeted, what types of promotions are most effective, what products should be offered, how employees should be compensated, which sales channels should be emphasized, how webpages should be designed, and more. Experiments are an ideal way to understand how to implement a "test and learn" approach to management and to separate the "signal" from the "noise."

Repeatability: This course may not be repeated for additional credits.

Pre-requisites: Minimum grade of B- in (STAT 5001, (STAT 5301 and MIS 5301), or (STAT 5401 and MIS 5401))

STAT 5605. Decision Models: From Data to Decisions. 3 Credit Hours.

Good analysts know that predictions are always uncertain. However, merely expressing uncertainty is not sufficient for decision making. In addition, we need to combine the results of uncertain inputs into a more general model, account for the relative severity of negative outcomes, and choose a strategy that best achieves our goals (e.g. highest expected value, most robust, least chance of losing, etc.). We also need to communicate the process and conclusions to constituents and to decision-makers. This course focuses on techniques for combining uncertain inputs into a decision model that can be used to characterize likely and unlikely outcomes, to quantify risk, and to identify inputs to a decision that are "high leverage" (i.e., outcomes are very sensitive to those inputs). In addition, you will learn how to build a decision model, how to make better decisions in the presence of uncertainty, and how to deal with multi-stage decisions.

Repeatability: This course may not be repeated for additional credits.

Pre-requisites: Minimum grade of B- in (STAT 5001, (STAT 5301 and MIS 5301), or (STAT 5401 and MIS 5401))

STAT 5606. Data: Care, Feeding, and Cleaning in Python. 3 Credit Hours.

Data is ubiquitous. Real data is also "dirty." Analysis of unclean data can significantly distort the results of analyses, and it can reduce or eliminate the benefits of an information-driven strategy. Thus, the first step in generating good information from data is to "clean" the data. Substantial research has been done on procedures to automatically or semi-automatically identify--and, when possible, correct--errors in large datasets. Even after data have been "scrubbed" the datasets are frequently not in the correct configuration for analysis. Data combination and manipulation involves techniques for merging and summarizing datasets, extracting subsets of data, and transforming variables within the datasets. In this course we explore tools and techniques for cleaning raw data (fixing errors, identifying outliers, etc.), extracting subsets or samples of data, merging and combining datasets, summarizing disaggregate data, and manipulating and transforming individual variables within the datasets. We will also discuss good procedures for ensuring data quality and reliability in data collection. In addition, we will discuss techniques to identify issues in data collection and how to clean the data.

Repeatability: This course may not be repeated for additional credits.

STAT 5607. Advanced Business Analytics. 3 Credit Hours.

This course builds upon the foundation in Business Analytics. In previous courses, we saw that data by itself is useless, and that it must be transformed into information in order to have value to decision makers. This course will extend your understanding of the art and science of extracting information from data into increasingly complex and "real world" data. Specifically, we will cover extensions to regression, logistic regression, hierarchical modeling, model selection, and other topics spanning the process of building and evaluating models. In addition, we will practice drawing intuition and insight from models and effectively communicating that insight in a format that can help decision-makers to make better decisions.

Organizations are drowning in a sea of data. However, data by itself is useless. To have value, it must be transformed into information that can be used to make decisions. It has been shown by myriad companies that one path to success in the business arena is through superior use of information - information about customers, markets, and operations. This course extends the material presented in Business Analytics I, continuing the development of the art and science of extracting information from data. The emphasis is on using extracted information to improve business decisions. It also delves into the presentation of quantitative data using state of the art tools and techniques.

This course will explore advanced tools and techniques for cleaning "raw" data. Real data is ubiquitous, but it is almost always "dirty". Analysis of "dirty" data can significantly distort results, which can reduce or eliminate the benefits from an analytic solution. The first step in extracting actionable information from data is to "clean" the data, and this process frequently occupies the majority of the analysis time. In this course, we will provide an in-depth look at the techniques that can be used to identify and deal with problematic data. Even after data have been "scrubbed", datasets are frequently not in the correct configuration for analysis, and we will explore techniques for merging and summarizing datasets, extracting subsets of data, and transforming variables. We will also discuss procedures for ensuring data quality and reliability in data collection.
