MSDS 476-DL : Business Process Analytics
Description
This course introduces data-driven management methods, including
business process workflows, mining, modeling, and simulation,
activity-based costing, constrained optimization, and predictive
analytics. Data from business operations, properly recorded in
time-stamped logs of activities and their associated costs,
represent essential information for business management. Analyzing
business activities provides a guide to business intelligence and
business process improvements, including those associated with
robotic process automation and digital transformation. By reviewing
detailed case studies and using commercial and open-source
analytics platforms, students learn how data and models can be used
to guide management decisions.
This is a required course for the Analytics Management
specialization.
