This course is aimed to provide the students with proper tools and knowledge to handle various types of data while struggling with their homework or theses, which is done on a commonly available platform of MS Excel.
After a general short repetition (depending on the current knowledge of the attendants) of basic excel features and functions we torn to more sophisticated data analysis, searching tools, filtering and advanced formatting. Should there be any specific needs resulting from the other courses’ tasks, this course will definitely address them. In a nutshell, the course should serve to strengthen and deepen the knowledge of MSExcel which should help the students to make their work on projects quicker and more efficient as well as enhance their position in possible job interviews with a useful skill.

Students can bring their own notebook to the exam. However, if any technical issue concerning their notebooks should prevent them from sitting for the exam, they will be asked to use the computers in the lab. Students can use MS Office help (offline and online), own notes, google, etc. But any form of external communication or help provided by someone else is not allowed. Students have to register via SIS for the exam.
Grading:
Test (60% weight). graded on scale 0-100 points. Project (35% weight), graded on scale 0-35 points. Homework (5% weigth), graded on scale 0-5 points. Overall score is therefore 0.6 * Test + Homework + Project => between 0 and 100 points.
A: 90+ to 100 B: 80+ to 90 C: 70+ to 80 D: 60+ to 70 E: 50+ to 60 F: 50 or less
