Learning outcomes
This module deals with the tools that can be used for data management and analysis for business and economics. Specific software (with a focus on MatLab) will be used to summarize the main information embedded in a sample of interest and to highlight the characteristics of the economic variables under analysis both through indices and graphical representations.
At the end of the course the student will have to demonstrate that he/she has acquired autonomy in the management of databases in order to extract information that can inform the decision process in business and policy areas.

Internships
The curriculum of the three-year degree courses (CdL) and master's degree courses (CdLM) in the economics area includes an internship as a compulsory training activity. Indeed, the internship is considered an appropriate tool for acquiring professional skills and abilities and for facilitating the choice of a future professional outlet that aligns with one's expectations, aptitudes, and aspirations. The student can acquire further competencies and interpersonal skills through practical experience in a work environment.

Methods of teaching delivery
All lectures as well as all the exams are held in person. In particular, we highlight the importance of taking part in classroom activities in order to benefit from interaction with colleagues and instructors and participating in project works, presentations and group works that could be organized by the different courses.
Furthermore, as a further service to students, the lessons will be video-recorded and made available on the relevant e-learning platform of the courses unless otherwise communicated by the individual lecturers who will also define the methods and times for activating this service. However, it is underlined that the recordings do not represent a substitute for the lectures and activities carried out in the classroom.
