Operations & Info Management 453 - BusinessIntelligence&Analytics

This course provides an introduction to Business Intelligence, including the
processes, methodologies, infrastructure, and current practices used to
transform business data into useful information and support business
decision-making. Business Intelligence requires foundation knowledge in
data storage and retrieval, thus this course will review logical data models
for both database management systems and data warehouses. Students will
learn to extract and manipulate data from these systems and assess
security-related issues. Data mining, visualization, and statistical
analysis along with reporting options such as management dashboards and
balanced scorecards will be covered. Technologies utilized in the course
include SAP Business Warehouse and Crystal Reports.
