Course Title Fundamentals of Business Analytics
Credit Units Lecture 3
Pre-requisite(s) Course Code NA
Course Title

Course Description

Business analytics (BA) is the practice of iterative, methodical exploration of an


organization's data, with an emphasis on statistical analysis. Business analytics is used
by companies committed to data-driven decision-making.

This course is designed to provide the students basic techniques of data science, that
included prominent algorithms used to mine data (e.g., clustering and association rule
mining), and basic statistical modeling (e.g., linear and non-linear regression). The course
is targeted towards learners and practitioners who would like to know the practices used
and the potential use of data analyses for fact-based business decision-making.

Course Objectives
The goal of this course is to introduce the main ideas, fundamental concepts, and key
algorithms in the fields of data analytics tools, data mining, and machine learning. The
course will prepare students to adapt to the big data era, to facilitate them to conduct
research in data science, and to be able to apply the introduced algorithms in their own
research areas.
