授業の概要 Course Overview

Misson Statementとの関係性 / Connection to our Mission Statement

To push to the "New Frontier," businesses will need the full toolkit of innovation, superior customer service delivery, value-adding collaborations, and value chain maximization. But these may not be enough to compete with “asset light" giants such as Tencent, Rakuten, Amazon, and Spotify. These companies use big data and analytics as the "tip of the spear," their secret sauce to drive decision- and strategy-making.

授業の目的(意義) / Importance of this course

What is the big data and analytics frenzy all about? When we watch Netflix or Tiktok, or merely walk with our smartphone, we are being big-data-dissected and “predicted,” i.e., about what we need to buy or watch next, whether we like it or not. The business press has added to the frenzy with jargon like “Digitization,” “AI,” “algorithms,” etc. We tend to be awed by the science. But we should not feel awed.

到達目標 / Achievement Goal


In this course students will get past the "awe" and learn about the foundations of data and analytics. We dive beneath the jargon into the how-to of analytics. We do practical in-class exercises on data analytics. We should no longer feel the intimidation. We must, however, do the math moves in order to appreciate the more sophisticated tools available to businesses.

Students start with a brief refresher on statistical concepts, and then jump to descriptive, predictive and prescriptive tools such as CLV, Monte Carlo simulations, SPC-SQC, OLS/Logistic regressions, and recommender systems. These tools are the simple precursors of many big data applications such as AI, Machine Learning, and Deep Learning. We simplify and get into the practical understanding. Students will not be a data scientist overnight from this course; that is more difficult and requires deep study of programming languages and data science concepts such as matrices and vectors. Rather, from this course students will know the foundations of data science and be able to intelligently talk to, and even manage, data scientists.

This is a 1400 minute, 2-credit course. We do intense math and stats drills. Be prepared to review and use multiple Excel and stats principles. Bottom line: this course is quantitative. Classes are one morning a week for seven weeks. Before each class students read problem sets and mini-cases. (Students are expected to bring their laptops with at least Excel installed.) Students are expected to meet with learning teams to share their inputs and sharpen the analysis. Students come to class ready to hear part-lecture, but to also participate actively in discussion to solve problems. There will be one midterm and one final exam.

評価の留意事項 Notes on Evaluation Criteria

50% of the grade consists of results from two exams. These will be one-hour sit-down exams, a mix of multiple choice and caselet problem-solving questions. Throughout the course we will also use the discussion method, where students volunteer to solve problems and freely discuss their approaches in class. I will also be assigning students to five-person learning teams throughout the term. The learning team will be integral to learning and discussion. At the end of the course positive peer assessment, where team members rate the performance of the best performances of their peers.
