This program provides an understanding of the latest approaches to prediction and classification with machine learning, as well as the theory and practice behind experiments and pilots as measurement tools in organizations. It aims to offer insights into the most recent advancements in technologies that enable the development of artificial intelligence systems, such as Chat-GPT or GEMINI, which can be applied and implemented in business contexts, having a direct impact on productivity and competitiveness.
The program offers practical experience through a case study that uses real-world data. The program consists of two curricular groups: the first curricular group focuses on predictive analysis through machine learning; the second curricular group introduces tools to design, implement, and evaluate experiments. Both curricular groups conclude with a group project to be developed using the methods and tools learned in the program.
