Quantitative Skills - Syllabus

This document outlines the course objectives, units, suggested readings, and outcomes for an MBA quantitative skills course. The course aims to teach students to compute and understand ratios, compound interest, matrices, derivatives, measures of central tendency, distributions, correlation, and regression. It covers probability concepts, theoretical distributions like binomial and normal, estimation theory, and hypothesis testing using z-tests, t-tests, F-tests and chi-square tests. The 50-hour course is divided into 4 units covering various quantitative topics and techniques. Upon completing the course, students should be able to calculate and interpret various quantitative measures and perform hypothesis testing.
