Course This program helps managers, researchers and data scientists reap the sociological and
summary business benefits of the data collected.
Consider for instance the vast amount of data that is collected in smart cities. Almost
everything is measured but in domains such as urban freight which impact the lives of
millions of citizens, data is gathered through traditional surveys instead of using the sensors
carried by people, built into the city and transportation fleet. This is as well due a lack of
Course analytical skills but also a lack of management understanding of the possibilities of using data
description science. Experience has taught us that next too pure mathematical, statistical and machine
learning skills, many big data scientist lack business skills but also that many business people
lack knowledge of machine learning and hacker skills and this hinders reaping the
sociological and business benefits of the data collected. The goal of this course is to help
managers, researchers and data scientists cross the bridge.
