digital marketing project planning business analytics marketing strategy researchPartnership Opportunity
Is your organization seeking some extra support with analyzing data from a fresh perspective in a controlled manner? If so, we have 4th year business students that are seeking the opportunity to help you by going through a complete model development process to clean data, develop prediction models, and present results using dashboards. In this course students learn to develop proficiency in data mining techniques and the knowledge discovery process.
How this works
Teams of 4 students will be provided with a messy data set with many variables and a challenge or opportunity that you are interested in exploring. Then the students will connect with you to set up an initial meeting (virtual, on the phone, or in-person) to gather more information in the first weeks of January and will provide you with their final report the first week of April.
Learners
Your organization will receive a written feedback assessment report that summarizes the project and the findings. Students will also present their findings in a high-level presentation at the end of the term.
