About the Quantitative Analytics Certificate
This certificate is aimed at providing students a set of skills that will make them valuable in a multitude of contexts where data and evidence-based decisions are made. The skills are based on promoting understanding as to how data can be collected, how to describe and make inferences from data, and expressing the implications of data to other individuals.
Students will become competent in three primary areas: skills in implementing statistical analyses, skills in research methodology, and skills in communicating research findings.
