General Information

Overview

The application of business intelligence and analytics have transformed the way in which organisations operate. Through the use of business intelligence and analytics tools, organisations are able to better understand how their businesses are performing, make well-informed decisions that improve business performance and create new strategic opportunities for growth. This unit equips you with the knowledge of various business intelligence concepts, tools and analytical techniques that organisations use for improving their decision making and to achieve competitive advantage. You will learn about the role of various information systems (Management Support Systems, Decision Support Systems, Knowledge-Based Systems, Group Support Systems) and how they are integrated at the enterprise level to support decision making. In this unit, you will specifically learn about data mining, data visualisation, text and web analytics and use a data mining tool to classify and analyse data.
