In this course students will delve deep into the realm of Revenue Management using Python. Starting with an understanding of Python core functionalities and the basics of revenue management, we'll then shift our focus to descriptive analytics, where data handling and visualization come into play using Python tools like Pandas and Matplotlib to make sense of demand and revenue data. As we move to predictive analytics, participants will learn about demand forecasting using time series and machine learning techniques. With the foundation set, the course will dive into prescriptive analytics, exploring the nuances of dynamic pricing, price optimization, and capacity management. Practical aspects, such as simulating pricing strategies and data-driven decision-making, will be at the forefront.
