Course Schedule
Sprint 1: Introduction to Study Design
Learn how to design an experiment by identifying key components such as independent and dependent variables, potential confounders, and sampling and randomization methods.
Sprint 2: AB Testing
Learn how to plan an A/B test by identifying the appropriate test, power, and sensitivity for a given business question and calculating the required sample size based on those factors. Then, learn how to conduct reproducible experiments by implementing techniques such as Bonferroni corrections.
Sprint 3: Multi-Arm Bandits
After a brief overview of multi-arm bandits, bring it all together in your Capstone Project, a real-world problem where you will conduct an experiment and present your results.
