Accounting Data Analytics
Course #: MBA AF 640
Description:
Data has proliferated in business and managers and accountants need to understand the implications for decision-making and tap into the data to provide better insights into a firm/client/customer/supplier, etc. This course is intended to provide students with an understanding of data analytic thinking and terminology as well as hands-on experience with data analytics tools and techniques. Specific topics include but are not limited to data preparation, cleaning and data mining using SAS, data visualization using Tableau, data warehousing for managerial accounting tasks and performing audit forensics with the IDEA application. Students should leave this course with the skills necessary to translate accounting and business problems into actionable proposals that they can competently present to managers and data scientists. While there will be some use of tools in this course, the focus of this class is on concepts, not algorithms or statistical math or programming.
