Statistics for International Business

The University of London organizes this course around describing data, working with probability and estimating unknown quantities. Graphs and numerical measures receive separate attention before the inferential section. It is a concise conceptual route for learners comparing statistics in a business context with courses centered on a particular software package.

What you will learn

• Choose a graph suited to a business variable.
• Interpret numerical summaries and probability distributions.
• Explain the role of estimation in a business analysis.
