Who can join?
The course is designed for students interested in handling and analysis of company and customer data, aiming to make sense of the vast amounts of information that is collected in the business world. The main target group are Advanced Bachelor's, Master's, as well as PhD students from different disciplines aiming to advance their econometric tool set to apply to a company setting.
Although methodological knowledge provides the basis of this course, the focus is on business practice. Academic articles serve as examples for such application, but the course is also suitable for students who seek a career in industry, positioning themselves in the intersection of management/marketing and analytics.
Examples include quantitative marketing fields such as business intelligence, data-driven customer relationship management, or related fields. PhD students aiming for an academic career can benefit from broadening and/or deepening their methodological knowledge and skillset, for instance in the direction of time-series or panel data analysis.
