Abstract
This course is about different approaches in business analytics and major types of business analytics. Specifically, there will be the focus on necessary vocabulary of business analyst and digital trends in the companies and applied skills in MS Office (Word, Excel, and Power Point). Throughout the semester there will be practical cases in different business fields as well as discussion of practice-oriented term papers. The seminar is aimed at developing students' skills of research work and applications of theoretical knowledge to solving practical cases.
Learning Objectives
- The course gives students an important foundation to develop and conduct their own research as well as to evaluate research of others.
Expected Learning Outcomes
- By the end of the course the students are expected to be able to undertake a substantial research project through which to demonstrate their research and analytical skills and how well they can apply a given theoretical understanding and methodology to a set problem.
- - - be able to design and understand the structure of data; use various visual and table presentations of data.
- Be able to present and/or interpret data in tables and charts.

- Distinguish between qualitative and quantitative research methods;
- Apply the basics of social network analysis at the network level (e.g. density, clustering, degree distribution, etc.); at the node level (e.g. degree, betweenness, closeness); at the subgraph level (e.g. triads, communities)
- Able to build integrated reports and dashboards
- Ability to formulate research question, and explain how the question and theory define methodology;
- - to learn the fundamental analytical scheme starting from data preparation and ending up with data visualisation in a form of a dashboard in Power BI
