ACCT 581F - Accounting Analytics

Credits: 4

This course teaches the tool-based Alteryx software. Students are taught the commonly-used tools and then two case studies are explored with accounting and finance datasets. Here students are taught how to apply their knowledge of the tools they learned to answer key data analytic questions. Windows PC is strongly preferred as the Alteryx software is not compatible with a MAC. MAC users might have additional costs or may need to use BU computer labs.
