Course Description


NBA 6390 Data-Driven Marketing

Spring. 3 credits. S. Gupta.

Deals with the use of data to make marketing decisions. Introduces concepts, methods, and applications of decision modeling to address marketing issues such as segmentation, targeting, positioning, promotions, advertising, and sales force decisions. Unlike marketing courses that focus on conceptual material, this course provides skills to translate conceptual understanding into specific operational plans—a skill in increasing demand in organizations today. The course is particularly valuable to students planning careers in management consulting, marketing, and market research. It is designed for students who have some background in quantitative methods and have a willingness to deal with mathematical concepts.
