Description

This course develops expertise in a standard set of statistical and graphical techniques, which will be useful in analysing data.
These techniques are widely applied in a number of areas of management, including marketing, finance and economics.
The course provides a change in mindset from "statistics can be used to show anything" to "statistics provides a methodology to cope with uncertainty" via the art of statistical thinking, that is, the ability to collect, understand and use data.
