BUSM 310 - Business Analytics Analytics has been defined as the extensive use of data, statistical and quantitative analysis, explanatory and predictive models, and fact-based management to drive decisions and actions. This course utilizes technology to transform data into actions through quantitative analysis.

Basic statistical analysis and modeling. (e.g., linear and non-linear regression)
Quantitative analysis of business problems requiring decision making
The modules cover techniques in which it is possible to examine (perhaps after some approximation) all the possible outcomes of an uncertain situation. Credits: 3
