We will examine the changing data privacy landscape and learn a variety of new methodologies for finding patterns in large datasets as well as how to create data warehouses from internet data and legacy systems. Guest speakers will be executives and consultants in the field of competing analytics.

    4.00 credits QTM3620 Operations Research (Advanced Lib Arts) The focus of this course is upon the development, solution, analysis, and implementation of optimization models and their applications within business, government, education, and sports. The topical emphasis is primarily upon mathematical programming, optimization of flows across networks, and the interrelationships between these two classes of methodologies. The learning process is oriented toward problem solving. There typically is a problem statement leading into each topic followed by the construction of a mathematical model, solution of the model, and the resulting analysis. Many of these illustrative examples are supplemented with the discussion of a journal article relating how a larger-than-classroom scaled model has been successfully implemented in practice.
