The success of modern business practices and evidenced-based decisions depends on sound statistical and analytical skills. This course lays the foundation for statistical thinking and imparts many valuable, important skills that are widely used in marketing, finance, economics, supply chain management, and financial accounting. This course also expands spreadsheet skills and advances the type of computing expertise for analyzing large complex data. This is a hands-on course with emphasis on examining and interpreting data using various statistical tools rather than on the theory underlying these tools. Statistical tools that are covered are exploratory data analysis; regression modeling for simple and multiple predictors; hypothesis testing and confidence intervals for a mean, a proportion, and regression coefficients; and normal, binomial, and chi-square distributions. This course should provide a foundation for further exploration of advanced data-mining tools.

Negotiation is a critical skill for leadership and management as well as for daily life. This course will examine the major concepts and theories of bargaining and negotiation as well as the dynamics of interpersonal and intergroup conflict and its resolution. The course will explore the nature of negotiation and the importance of strategizing and planning for negotiation in the context of both distributive bargaining and integrative negotiation. Additionally the course will cover negotiation subprocesses including communication, perception, biases, social contexts, multiparty negotiations, individual differences, global negotiation, and identifying or creating leverage. Finally, the course will examine the key concepts of outcomes, dispute resolution, and remedies. Students will participate in a group negotiation project, and each student will complete a personal ""Best Practices Manual for Negotiation"" as a final project for the course. This manual will provide a practical framework for approaching business and personal negotiation.

This course explores the local area network (LAN), wide area network (WAN), broadband technologies, and network protocols needed to design and implement converged switched networks in an enterprise environment. In this course, students are introduced to integrated network services and learn how to select the appropriate systems and technologies to meet the technical requirements of large complex networks. Students learn how to implement and configure common network protocols and how to apply network design best practices, access control methodologies, and basic security frameworks. In addition, students will learn how to detect, troubleshoot, and correct common enterprise network implementation issues.

Wireless networking is a framework for using radio signals to transmit data between various devices and systems. A mobile network or cellular network is a wireless network designed to use radio signals for data over a wide geographic area. Telecommunications companies have installed cellular voice and data networks over most of the populated areas of the planet thus allowing mobile phones and other wireless devices to be connected to the public switched telephone network and public internet from almost anywhere on the globe. In this course students will explore the design and implementation of wireless and mobile networks. Topics covered include: Bluetooth, induction wireless, infrared wireless (IrDA), ultra wideband (UWB), microwave, Multichannel Multipoint Distribution Service (MMDS), FSO (free space optics), Wi-Fi, WiMax (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access), satellite, cellular networks, Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM), 3G and 4G (third and fourth generation mobile network), wireless and mobile security, global area networks (GAN), and sensor networks.

The goal of pervasive computing, which combines network technologies with wireless computing, voice recognition, internet capability, and artificial intelligence, is to create an environment where the connectivity of devices is embedded in such a way that it is unobtrusive and always active. Pervasive computing goes beyond the realm of personal computers or the internet. At its core is the notion that almost any device, be it clothing or tools or appliances or a body or a toothbrush, can be embedded with chips that connect the device to a vast network of other devices. Cloud computing, on the other hand, focuses on the use of shared resources to achieve computational coherence and economies of scale. Similar to utility computing and edge computing, cloud computing has at its core the management of a converged infrastructure and shared services. In this course students will explore the various computing models, operational frameworks, and technologies that are used to implement pervasive and cloud systems. Topics will include: personal area network (PAN), distributed computing, grid computing, utility computing, virtualization, cloud characteristics, cloud service models, cloud deployment models (public, private, hybrid, federated, reservoir), architectures, cloud security, and fog computing (federated cloud).

Network operations centers (NOC) are the command and control hubs used to manage network resources in large networks. NOC personnel are concerned with the operation, administration, and maintenance of these systems. Operation pertains to keeping the network up and running efficiently. This includes monitoring the network to identify and resolve issues as soon as possible. Administration involves keeping track of resources in the network and how they are allocated. It includes all the day-to-day detail work needed to control the network. Maintenance is concerned with performing repairs and upgrades as well as corrective and preventive measures to make the managed network operate more efficiently. In this course, students will develop the knowledge and skills in network management to allow them to control, plan, allocate, deploy, coordinate, and monitor network resources. Topics include network planning, frequency allocation, predetermined traffic routing to support load balancing, cryptographic key distribution authorization, configuration management, fault management, security management, performance management, bandwidth management, route analytics, and accounting management.
