This course will explain the process of the digital transformation. Based on the 4 “key success factors in the digital” – platform, co-creation, delivery, managing change – and around the example of e-commerce, this course is adapted to anyone who needs to understand the digital transformation from a global perspective, and not only technical. A particular focus will be done on the soft skills – digital transformation is foremost all about human interactions. Students will have the opportunity to work around a business case.
This course will provide students with executive insights into the fundamentals of project management. It will provide both the traditional and the modern “Agile” frameworks used in various industries in order to increase efficiencies and the likelihood of success of complex projects. The course will include lectures by the instructor, readings, case studies, presentations and class discussions.
This course will emphasize principles, concepts and systems used in digital marketing, SEO (search engine optimization), SEA (search engine advertising) and SEM (search engine marketing). This lecture is adapted to students who want to work in the digital sector and will give them skills and competences for operational decision in the digital sector. A focus will be done on the certification and key words referencing (Ads/Analytics). In this course, students will learn how to drive traffic to a website through a multi-channel approach and convert visitors into customers. They will also learn how to create effective digital campaign strategies using viral marketing and online ads with Google Ads.
The objective of this course is to introduce students to the strategic and tactical issues of digital marketing and for them to apply this knowledge in case studies and exercises.
The course objective is to provide students with a basic knowledge of R. The coding tools will be used to analyse Google, smartphone and climate data among others.
Although there are currently a wide variety of software packages suitable for the modern statistician, R has the triple advantage of being comprehensive, widespread, and free. The lectures focuses on modern tools to manipulate and visualize data with R.
The course aim is to reinforce students competency in using MS Excel as a business modelling tool. In particular, the course will focus on designing robust, reliable, easy to maintain and update models, manipulating and organising large data set, understanding and implementing different probability distribution functions when modelling business problems, and defining and programming performance optimisation problems aimed at maximising/minimizing a business function outcome.
Collection and analysis of data enhances business insights. Statistical models are powerful tools for data analysis. The most well-known statistical model is the linear regression model, where a variable of interest is explained and predicted by a collection of other variables. In this course we tart from the linear regression model, and show how it can be applied and extended. Focus is on understanding the methods, and applying them to data using software.
In business and society in general there is an abundance of data available. The process of retrieving useful information from these data is called data mining. In this course we present different data mining methods, and show they can be useful for management purposes. We will perform analysis using the R software. Focus is on understanding, intuition, limitations, and practical use of the methods.
This course provides an introduction to statistical learning algorithms with a focus on regression, supervised classification and scoring methods. After a presentation of the mathematical setting, the lecture presents some of the most important learning algorithms (penalized regressions, tree algorithms, boosting, random forests). For each algorithm, a particular focus will be done on the estimation of the performances. Applications of the proposed methods on real and simulated data are presented.
This course will emphasize principles, theory, processes and techniques used to build effective visuals helping students to choose the best way to show data and communicate with data. This lecture relies heavily on practical application of data visualization and case studies and will give students the foundations they need to be able to present data using engaging and impactful visual design and tell stories about the data that resonate to the audience.
You will learn how to use Tableau Software to create advanced, interactive dashboards and create Data Visualizations that helps to answer business questions and take decisions.
This course is designed to help you understand the strong value of the Data & Analytics - Data Science -, which helps company's business departments to find and implement new sources of competitive advantage (CRM - Digital Marketing / Risk / Fraud Detection / Operational efficiency / New Business Models).
Artificial Intelligence is the hot tech topic of the moment. In the last 10 years, the ability to collect and organise more & more data, the development of machine learning and the massive investments of the tech giants and VCs have been strong catalysts to support the development of AI. It is now part of our day to day life and should be more and more present in the coming years. All tech specialists consider that AI will know an incredible boom in the next 10 / 20 years and that its impact will be gigantic. Most of them consider that AI impact on our society and economy should at least be compared to the one of the Industrial Revolution of the 19th Century and that it could. The raise of AI could be the main challenge our society will face in the 21st century as AI will challenge the way Humans’ personal and professional life are organise. By analysing AI trends through the technological, the social & the economic prism and measure this course aims to help student understand AI phenomena and challenges. More than provide impossible answers, the objective of the course is to help you understand the main concepts to be able to ask themselves the relevant questions to assess the subject and make their own opinion on AI challenges & potentials.
Artificial Intelligence is one of the most disruptive technologies emerging today. This course will form managers to understand the impacts of AI, separate the vision from the practical application and structure transformative initiatives.
This course is a practical, hands on approach to key advanced Machine Learning algorithms and their applicability to solving business problems.You will have the opportunity to review all of the Machine Learning algorithms you have learned in your other classes. During this course, further examples will be demonstrated using Python and R, and you will develop your own project.
In this course you will learn about the role of a supply chain manager and discover the key directives of supply chain performance: that goods are sourced and expedited in optimal conditions and how choices are made with respect to corporate strategy, brand, and time to market.
Learn how the Internet of Things (IoT) is transforming the world of business. This course explores the way companies are leveraging IoT technologies and the unique challenges that arise with massive adoption of these new technologies. Through a series of case studies, you will discover the way organisations are adopting and implementing IoT and addressing the challenges of IoT management at a large scale. You will learn to use the IBM Internet of Things Foundation to manage and implement IoT devices and apply them to key industry use cases.
This course will help you gain an understanding of digital marketing as it applies to different types of business models and industries (e.g., B2C, B2B, or e-commerce). You will explore the various tools and topics of Digital Marketing and learn how they work together to acquire clients and revenue. This elective is designed to accompany all courses related to web analytics and digital business.
In this course you will learn how cities create value from data, cloud and citizen engagement and how data and information technology influence city-effectiveness in planning and management, optimisation of city infrastructure and supporting the needs of each citizen.

The goal is to give you a deeper understanding of how big data, internet of things, and advanced data analysis can help intelligent urbanization and shape cities and urban areas.
The commercial exploitation of advanced data analytics and big data raises a number of concerns from an ethical viewpoint, ranging from privacy, discrimination, manipulative nudging all the way to risks of deepening social inequalities. At the same time big data holds the promise of improving our knowledge about human behaviour and society, which could, if well used, ease precisely the aforementioned problems. In this course you will learn to analyse the negative and positive potential of big data from a normative standpoint.
This course caters to students wanting to work in the healthcare sector.
