Course Syllabus
Abstract
The course introduces students to basic statistical methods for exploratory analysis and the analysis of relationships. Students will get ready for data management and for basic comparative, correlation and regression analysis of survey, sales and other types of data commonly used in marketing and management. Students will get intermediate R statistical computing skills necessary for more advanced courses. 50% of the course is dedicated to hands-on R coding, which is why the course will be useful even for students who studied Econometrics using another package but want to master the popular and powerful R package. In addition, being tailored to management students, this course does not duplicate traditional Econometrics courses for economists in terms of empirical examples used in it.

Interim Assessment
- 2021/2022 1st moduleThe final grade is the simple average of 4 components. As each component is evaluated on the 100-point scale (without rounding to the nearest integer), the final grade is first obtained as a continuous number on a 100-point scale (not rounded to integers) and then converted to the 10-point according to the rules for converting the 100-point scale final grade to the 10-point scale: [95,100)=10 [90,95)=9, [80,90)=8, [70,80)=7, [60,70)=6, [50,60)=5, [40,50)=4, [30,40)=3, [20,30)=2, [10,20)=1, [0,10)=0
