Business Intelligence and Analytics

OIM

This course provides an introduction to business intelligence and analytics, 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 models and data retrieval, thus this course will review logical data models for both relational database systems and data warehouses. Students will learn to extract and manipulate data from these systems using Structured Query Language (SQL). This course also covers visualization, reporting, and dashboard design with experiential learning using leading industry applications.

Course Notes
OIM majors and non-OIM Isenberg majors should monitor the course via Spire for seat availability. Students who add themselves to the Spire waitlist should ensure they do not enroll in a course that conflicts with this course or are enrolled in a max number of credits. 30 seats are reserved for declared OIM majors. Remaining seats are available to non-OIM Isenberg majors who meet the enrollment requirements. Please contact the Isenberg Undergraduate Programs Office at undergrad@isenberg.umass.edu if you meet the enrollment requirements, seats are available, and you are unable to self-enroll or add yourself to the Spire waitlist (if open as indicated by a yellow triangle). Please note that for all OIM courses, the Department utilizes the Spire waitlist. The Registrar will stop promoting students on the Spire waitlist about one week prior to the beginning of classes. Once the Spire waitlist is no longer functional, you will need to monitor the class and self-enroll if a seat becomes available.

Business Process Simulation

OIM

Computer simulation presented for carrying out trial-and-error experiments on computer approximations of real, management systems. The goal is to 1) validate a new idea quickly, 2) diagnose potential product design problems, 3) optimize performance of complex systems, and 4) learn about something complex. The Arena environment, based on the SIMAN language, used to build models and video game-like animations.
