As a result, they do not see the overall picture of everything that the field of data analysis has to offer. This course is designed to fill this gap. It is a survey course on state-of-the-art in interdisciplinary methods of data analysis, applicable to business and academia alike. Unlike other statistical courses, which focus on specific methods, this course will focus on the broader areas within statistics and data analytics. There are five major topics it will cover.

Then it will move through the contemporary approaches to descriptive, inferential, predictive and prescriptive analytics. Within each broader topic, the course will offer the theoretical foundation behind the methods without focusing too much on the mathematics. It will provide historical references, examples, explanations and case studies to illustrate the main concepts within each broader topic.
