Statistics in Management Education
通过两项调查,对比了MBA毕业生对统计学知识的使用和课程内容看法,与教师对未来统计学内容减少的预期,发现学生建议增加统计学内容而教师认为会减少。
SUMMARY Results of two surveys are presented and indicate the statistical knowledge of past students from Master of Business Administration programmes, their usage of statistics together with their opinions about the statistical content of Master of Business Administration degree courses. These views are contrasted with the results of a second survey of academic staff who teach statistics on such programmes. We find that past students recommend a greater statistical content than is currently taught but, paradoxically, most of the academic staff associated with teaching the subject believe that the statistical content of their programme will decrease in future years.
