Abstract

Students will study modern methods of data analysis and will acquire practical skills in using Python programming language for data manipulation and analysis. At the end of the course students will be able to carry out preliminary preparation of data, choose an appropriate method of data analysis depending on the type of data and the research task, conduct quantitative data analysis and interpret the obtained results.

Learning Objectives

give students an introduction to the most widely used data analysis methods
explain the data analysis methods using real data and concentrating on complications that may occur during the analysis in real-life research
teach students how to organize their own research project using the knowledge obtained during the course
explain how to use data analysis tools in the most effective way to perform the research tasks

Expected Learning Outcomes

create a cluster model and describe it
create a factor model and describe it
create a regression model and describe it
formulate research hypotheses and construct models
prepare empirical data for their further analysis
select appropriate methods of data analysis depending on the research question and types of empirical data
