The Analytics Project That "College Me" Would Do

If I were 21 again ...

Note that I originally wrote a version this post for my analytics students on our class WordPress site.

I've taught CIS450: Enterprise Analytics Capstone more than a few times. Still, this is most likely the first time that you're taking it. What's more, I'd bet that you haven't undertaken a project akin to the individual research that you'll do this semester.

This begs the question: What would I do if I were a 21-year-old student?

You already know that I'm a huge fan of the English neo-prog band Marillion. Let's say that I already had my post-graduation job lined up. That is, I wasn't using the project to show recruiters my knowledge of a specific problem, industry, or the like.
