Course Description
This course provides an introduction to the concepts of business intelligence (BI). It explores how business problems can be solved effectively by using operational data to create data warehouses and then applying analytics to gain new insights into organizational operations. In particular, students learn effective modelling techniques (dimensional modelling), foundations and technologies for the Decision-Making process, the ETL process, Business Performance Management, and analytical modelling (descriptive, predictive, and prescriptive). Students will learn to exploit the demonstrated topics to extract business intelligence and convey it to stakeholders.
