About
‘Big Data’ renders the global business environment increasingly complex requiring companies to look out for employees who are able to analyse large data, to detect patterns and to visualize results to decision-makers. Join the program on machine learning and data analytics to become an expert on real-world financial problems. The course takes place in a hybrid format including in-class sessions in MUnich and remote sessions July 12 -30, 2021. This course aims at making you familiar with basic machine learning approaches and data analytics techniques by enabling you to use them to your professional benefit. Adopting a user perspective, you will learn to automate simple, but time-consuming tasks such as classification of analysts’ conference calls into economically meaningful content. Additionally, the course enables you to tackle complex prediction tasks using different information sources. Finally, the course gives you relevant data analytics skills such as the description, visualization and statistical analysis of such predictions. We will use the programming language Python to apply the above concepts. Upon successful application, participants will be able to analyse large amounts of data, receive 6 ECTS credits for their performance and explore Munich through extracurricular activities.
