This course is an examination of the most advanced applications of those techniques. The structure of the course is to examine the use of them to four main areas of interest: player performance measurement, in-game decision-making, player selection/team building, and general administration such as marketing, pricing, contracts, stadium management etc. Emphasis will be placed on not only how the application of Analytics has improved each of these situations, but how those decisions relate to business decisions in any other field of commerce. Each class will examine one or more of these topics in one or more sport. Several classes will have guest speakers with practical experience in the field of Sports Analytics.
