Seminar on Strategic Decision Making in Freight Transport using Data Analytics

College of Business Administration hosted a seminar for DBA students, delivered by Dr. Wessam Abouarghoub from Cardiff Business School-Cardiff University-UK, on how to use data analytics to inform decisions on freight transport, on Thursday 4/11/2021. Dr. Abouarghoub showed the students how to extract relevant data from Eikon Datastream. This session was well-attended and engaging, all participants enthusiastically shared their own experiences with the guest speaker, which enriched the session greatly.

It is worth mentioning that AU signed an MoU with Cardiff Business School, Cardiff University, the UK in May 2021. Cardiff University is ranked #159 according to the 2021 QS ranking, and it is also one of twenty-four elite research universities in the UK, known as Russell Group.  Holding such seminars for our doctorate candidates is just one area in which both institutions are seeking activation of a very promising MoU.
