Requisite map
Overview
In today’s data-rich environment, the ability to analyse data proficiently is an essential life skill, on par with numeracy and literacy. Analytics professionals are needed in many organisations to harness data to drive change, impact decisions, and predict what is most likely to occur in the future. This major develops your ability to balance curiosity about the world around us with scepticism to reliably interpret findings. You will learn how to extract insights from data in the presence of randomness, uncertainty and variation, applying statistical and computational techniques to validate your conclusions and assess their robustness to future scenarios.
