Network analysis is a long-standing methodology used to understand the relationships between words and actors in the broader networks in which they exist. This course covers network analysis as it pertains to marketing data, specifically text datasets and social networks. Learners walk through a conceptual overview of network analysis and dive into real-world datasets through instructor-led tutorials in Python. The course concludes with a major project.

Network Analysis Introduction and Terminology
In this module, we will learn the key concepts in network analysis and the key terminology, including semantic and social networks. We will also survey common network analyses in marketing.
Network Analysis Data Structures and Calculations
In this module, we will learn how networks are prepared and the common data formats that represent networks. We will learn the differences between different network calculations and how networks are presented visually.
Preparing and Visualizing Social Networks
In this module, we will learn how to parse tweet JSON, extract mentions and text, load connections into edge lists, and visualize the network in Google Colab.
Preparing and Visualizing Semantic Networks
In this module, we will learn how to parse tweet JSON, process text into features, load connections into edge lists, and visualize the network in Google Colab.
Acerca de Programa especializado: Text Marketing Analytics
Marketing data are complex and have dimensions that make analysis difficult. Large unstructured datasets are often too big to extract qualitative insights. Marketing datasets also often involve relational and connected and involve networks. This specialization tackles advanced advertising and marketing analytics through three advanced methods aimed at solving these problems: text classification, text topic modeling, and semantic network analysis. Each key area involves a deep dive into the leading computer science methods aimed at solving these methods using Python. This specialization can be taken for academic credit as part of CU Boulder’s Master of Science in Data Science (MS-DS) degree offered on the Coursera platform. The MS-DS is an interdisciplinary degree that brings together faculty from CU Boulder’s departments of Applied Mathematics, Computer Science, Information Science, and others. With performance-based admissions and no application process, the MS-DS is ideal for individuals with a broad range of undergraduate education and/or professional experience in computer science, information science, mathematics, and statistics.
