-
2. Intended Learning Outcomes:
1. Students can produce original research of publishable quality in the field of
administrative sciences that provides a significant contribution to knowledge and
practice.
2. Students will be able to construct effective communication in disseminating their
research findings
3. Students can plan effective usage of a significant range of advanced and
specialized skills in management of information, including the application of
computer systems and software which are relevant to their chosen field of
specialization.
4. Students can plan effective leadership in resolving problems during their research
activities through working with others.
Course Learning Outcomes:
1. Students can critically evaluate existing research to identify gaps in the literature
and justify the need for their study.
2. Students can apply and evaluate various data analysis techniques using relevant
quantitative software
3. Students can create quantitative data analysis results and present them effectively
to design a model
3. Description
The Quantitative Data Analysis course is designed to equip students with an in-depth
understanding and practical skills in conducting quantitative data analysis and building
models relevant to their research fields. The course covers a range of topics, from literature
review to the use of software. Students will learn about the stages of quantitative data
analysis, including data cleaning, descriptive statistics, hypothesis testing, regression
analysis, and model building. Through this course, students are expected to analyze
quantitative data both manually and using appropriate software, as well as to interpret and
present the analysis results comprehensively and meaningfully.
