Machine Learning

In this subject, you will be introduced to mathematical and statistical methods for analysing scientific, business or technical data to inform and support decision-making. You will explore why data is needed and how it is used to make decisions, including how data are collected, analysed, interpreted and presented, and you will learn and apply a suite of common statistical and mathematical methods to generate evidence for decision-making.You will also be introduced to data management software and learn how to represent and communicate mathematical and statistical information effectively. Through data sets relevant to your discipline, you will learn how to problem solve, generate evidence, and present solutions using data handling and statistical approaches.

Any modern business today will utilise some form of spreadsheet tool to review, manipulate and visualise data (in the form of charts for reporting). A spreadsheet tool also enables one to undertake advanced tasks on business data, such as performing scenario analyses and undertaking complex data analytics, for example creating a forecasting model. In this subject, you will learn how to use two technological tools to undertake data analysis. The first tool is Structure Query Language (SQL), which we will use to pull relevant data into Excel and facilitate further analysis. Next, various advanced Excel analyses including pivot tables, statistical analysis, and creation of basic forecasting models will be covered. Upon successful completion of this subject you will be proficient in basic data analysis using Excel and SQL, setting you up to become an analytical and data driven problem solver. With these skills, you will also be ready to identify insights allowing you to disrupt typical business operations systematically and with a higher chance of success.

Get up to speed with basic data analysis using SQL and Excel. You’ll delve into the data analytics concepts and processes used in business today. Find, present, and explain data trends. Solve complex business problems.

Note: If you study this subject in Winter, the subject will be a shorter duration (5 weeks) and will require at least 20 hours of study per week. Summer also has a shorter duration (9 weeks).Data analytics is present in every moment of our lives. Smartphones, smart cars, smart fridges. Netflix, Stan, Amazon, and Facebook. Strava and Nike providing feedback on your current workout. FlyBuys, Qantas Frequent Flyers, and Woolworths Rewards. At the heart of comprehensive data collection and analysis is a desire and quest to understand ‘everything’, and this unit invites students into every layer of this data-driven world. MSP202 teaches students how to clean, manipulate, and transform data into creative visualisations using Microsoft Excel to tell a story for invested stakeholders. Students examine the impact of data analytics in the context of their career and the world of work more broadly, including the spheres of marketing and communications, journalism, the creative arts, sport, health, and education, grounding practical skills in a social context and reinforcing the how and why of data analysis. We explore ethical issues relating to data surveillance, the positive and negative implications of data mining on human behaviour, and the analytics machines central to the functioning of Google, Amazon, Facebook, and Uber. The unit offers students the skills to engage with data with an awareness of ethical considerations, and the capacity to manipulate that data to make sense of it for invested stakeholders, telling a story that has the capacity to change the world.Please Note: All students studying at Murdoch University will need to complete the compulsory unit, Murdoch Academic Passport (MAP100), which only takes 2-3 hours to complete online.
