Zeeshan Ali

Role

As a Senior Lecturer in Business Analytics at Oxford Brookes University and an AWS Educator, my primary roles and responsibilities encompass teaching, research, and administrative duties. I have developed and led several modules, including Business Analytics (Level 7), where I teach Python programming, AWS ecosystem fundamentals, descriptive analysis, regression, classification, time series analysis, and end-to-end analytics. Additionally, I manage modules such as Managing the Digital Business (Level 5) and The Practice of Data Analysis (Level 7), focusing on R programming, data preprocessing, and storytelling. I also deliver guest lectures on Business Intelligence using PowerBI and supervise master’s student dissertations. Beyond teaching, I facilitate "Help to Grow" and experiential learning sessions, and I have attended advanced trainings at institutions like the London School of Economics and the University of Oxford. Administratively, I serve as a Network Fellow for the Artificial Intelligence and Data Analytics Network (AIDAN), where I plan and execute events, and contribute to broader academic administration. My work integrates cutting-edge tools and methodologies to foster a comprehensive learning environment for students and advance research in business analytics.
