Graduate Certificate in Finance and Investment Analytics

As our economy becomes more data-driven, financial and investment decisions will increasingly be guided by insights from data. This course bridges the gap between data analytics and finance and investment decisions.

You will develop a solid foundation in predictive analytics and its applications in finance and investment decision-making, using techniques from data mining, statistics, modeling, machine learning, and artificial intelligence to analyze current data and make sound investment predictions.

You will also learn how best to communicate your ideas to stakeholders who do not possess any data analytics knowledge.
