Students are introduced to major statistical and decision analysis tools used in business. Students are prepared for quantitative analysis in a variety of areas, including strategy, operations, finance, human resources, marketing and sales. By separating fact from opinion and identifying the most influential factors and risks in those areas, students will formulate judgments that provide a competitive advantage to themselves and their organizations.
