Business Data Governance and Ethics

This subject focuses on challenges associated with the management and regulation of business data systems and analytic practices, including privacy, accountability, cybersecurity, and risk management. Students will also gain a deeper understanding of the ethical challenges and principles associated with data collection, storage and maintenance, application in business intelligence and decision‐making, data governance, and addressing the potential biases associated with algorithmic design and the application of data analytic tools. These issues will be considered as both a business use case and consideration of deeper philosophical and societal challenges associated with the fast‐changing pace of analytic technologies and capabilities faced with the application of generative AI technologies and expanding computational capabilities influencing the application of data science to business decision making.
