While some students were interested in research because they plan to pursue graduate studies, this time I chose to frame Research Methodology as a practical tool for making decisions in professional roles such as data analyst or data scientist.</p> <p>The following authors and works informed the development of my lecture slides:</p> <ul> <li>Hernández Sampieri, Roberto , Fernández Collado, Carlos , Baptista Lucio, María del Pilar (2014). Metodología de la investigación (6° ed.). México: McGraw Hill Interamericana Editores S.A. de C.V.</li> <li>Camm, J. D., Fry, M. J., &amp; Shafer, S. M. (2025). Data Science and Decision Science Skills: Are They Different and Does It Matter?
