Data Analytics

Content

The discipline Data Analytics mainly emphasises ‘Business Intelligence’ and refers to the analysis of business data to uncover hidden patterns, unknown correlations and other useful information that can be used to make better business decisions. McKinsey and Gartner claim that there is an enormous shortage of graduates in this field. Due to the more quantitative schooling of business engineers, emphasis is placed on price-fixing, analytical customer management systems (analytical Customer Relationship Management = aCRM), predictive and prescriptive analytics as well as more recent evolutions in Big Data, social media and web analysis.
