Course description

The use of analytics to support decision making is the goal of prescriptive analytics. Optimisation and simulation techniques are often the focus of prescriptive analytics exercises and are the primary focus of this course. These methods - optimisation and simulation techniques - provide analysts with powerful frameworks to solve business problems and guide decision making. The course brings these techniques to life using the R software to solve practical business problems.
