We focus on

Case studies - Data visualization - Big data.

Case studies

We will provide additional case studies that allow for studying the entire process of data analysis from the substantive business or policy question through collecting or accessing data, managing and cleaning data, carrying out the analysis, presenting and interpreting its results, and addressing the original substantive questions. Case studies aim at answering a question rather than simply illustrating a method. We selected case studies with a potential appeal to a wide range of students. The topics cover management, consumer choice, labor markets, health, energy, macroeconomic and social policy.

Data visualization

Understanding patterns in data is greatly helped by data visualization. We present a comprehensive take on how to build graphs using a few layers. For many types of graphs, we offer shorter sections on how best show a relationship illustrated by graphs used in case studies.
