Class Central Tips
This course is designed to impact the way you think about transforming data into better decisions. Recent extraordinary improvements in data-collecting technologies have changed the way firms make informed and effective business decisions. The course on operations analytics, taught by three of Wharton’s leading experts, focuses on how the data can be used to profitably match supply with demand in various business settings. In this course, you will learn how to model future demand uncertainties, how to predict the outcomes of competing policy choices and how to choose the best course of action in the face of risk. The course will introduce frameworks and ideas that provide insights into a spectrum of real-world business challenges, will teach you methods and software available for tackling these challenges quantitatively as well as the issues involved in gathering the relevant data.

This course is appropriate for beginners and business professionals with no prior analytics experience.

    Nan Halberg completed this course, spending 4 hours a week on it and found the course difficulty to be easy.

    Best course out of the specialization in terms of clear presentation, hands-on learning (in Excel), and exposure to some basic concepts. Very professional preparation and delivery of course content - I wish all MOOCs were done this well.

    I just want to improve my knowledge and do not stop people to learning. In this Coursera I can study even only just as a reviewer.
    I can learn with a good lecturer. Thank You Coursera for this review lesson.

    Great course, I picked up some new skills in Excel. Examples used were relevant to the world. Quizzes were a bit too easy considering the content of the lectures.
