The course themes are very interesting, as the optional material. However, I disagree with the no prior requirements: given the lessons method, it is necessary a well-above average level of mathematics, statistics and excel (when not directly Stata, which is not free and whose examples are not released). I also would have preferred a more engaging presentation style (too often the lessons seemed "read" speeches).

Overall I would recommend this course to students and professionals with prior statistics knowledge and a specific desire to deepen their skills on workable models.

My idea of approaching decisions really changed thanks to this course. Professors are good at accompanying you along the way. Also very useful for those who don't deal with innovation.

La lógica detrás de la materia explicada es fácil de entender. La forma de explicar de los profesores no plasma esto, con lo cual hace que el material parezca mucho más complejo de lo que realmente es.

True to its name, this course delivers a clear explanation of the role of hypothesis-testing, the use of probabilities in decision making and how to choose the optimal path from the options available. The actual implementation of the scientific approach is illustrated through real-world case studies and interviews.

The course has greatly encouraged me to think more scientifically when problem-solving.

I particularly appreciated the instructors' quick replies to queries, which was a great motivation for me to explore the subject further.

Establishing fundamental Ideas about making a solid decision in the world of uncertainty and ambiguity.

nice course, interesting topics and well trained professors. the only suggestion is to show better how to perform analysis in STATA, integrating video showing more detailed screenshot and codes.

It is a really nice course, because of good-quality videos and clear examples. The course helped me get a better understanding of scientific approaches in management. I was able to systematize my knowledge in statistics and currently feel much more confident and will be improving further. Thanks to the authors!

The course challenged me and allowed to experiment a way of managerial thinking. The only weak point is the final project evaluation: as it is done by peers, it happens to be very diverse and sometimes the feedback needed for improving the report is too scarce or ambiguous to be able to take action.

Clear, concrete and useful. This course help you to think strategically when approaching an idea or you have to evaluate an idea in a broader context

Excellent path to start understanding and using basic and more advanced scientific methods to managerial decision making.

When intuition is not enough and data are almost everywhere, managers should use these techniques.

Really good course that helped me de-mystifying several areas within innovation management.

amazing and very useful course in growing one's career graph professionally

Intense content and concise explanation

Everything is fine and clear. Thanks!

Recomend for all innovation managers

It's a really well designed course and the objectives are out across quite clearly, which I think is very important for a course like this one.

The only aspect that could have been better or could be made better is the explanation of terms. For me, personally, I had a hard time understanding the terminologies because I have learnt basic stats, so elaboration of the concepts in simpler language would be helpful which however depends on the target audience: If only managers with stats/math background are to take this course, I think everything is well laid out in the course.

Thank you, I learnt quite a lot!

Good Course! Bocconi University is a guarantee. It requires knowledge of Statistics in advance. I would suggest to include how to run some analysis with Excel / LibreOffice and not only with the STATA Tool. Overall this course has improved my knowledge and i really appreciate the difference in difference analysis - it took a bit to understand the practical application but now i have another decision tool to be used.

Interesting course with scientific methods to evaluate business innovation. Could use more explanation and case studies to show students tangible results to develop and connect theory with practice, especially for those requiring or needing reinforcement from text lessons rather than video. Some language doesn't convey principles well into English, but generally helpful and solid educational experience.

course well done in terms of pace and content.

as improvement point teachers could schedule few times boxed windows with studens for Q&A more interactive

Not an easy course to follow with a lot of videos and reading etc. I would of liked some different presenters and real life examples which would help to reach a wider learning audience.
