This course deals with the concepts and techniques that are used in the design and analysis of experiments. The course primarily focuses on direct marketing applications, but it is also relevant for someone interested in designing experiments in the fields of physical, chemical, biological, medical, economic, social, psychological, and industrial sciences; engineering; or agriculture. This course teaches you how to design efficient marketing experiments with more than one factor, analyze the results that your experiments yield, and maximize the information that is gleaned from a marketing campaign. Factorial and fractional factorial designs are discussed in greater detail.
