Overview

Graduate Diploma of Information System (GDIS) Core
Master of Information System (MIS) Core

Enterprises are increasingly making use of business analytics and business intelligence to provide data driven insights which support more effective decision making. Indeed, businesses which fail to do so are likely to be at a competitive disadvantage.

This subject aims to introduce current methods and technologies in business intelligence and analytics with a focus on the management of information delivery and analytics to support reporting and decision making. This subject introduces three phases of business intelligence-descriptive analysis, predictive analysis, and prescriptive analysis. Students will use data mining and data visualisation tools and techniques to provide them with problem-solving skills to identify and resolve organisational issues.
