Course Learning Outcomes

1. understand the data science workflow, including identifying business problems, understanding data sources, data cleaning and preparation, exploratory data analysis, modeling, and communication of results.
2. apply the principles of data science to real-world scenarios by designing and executing data-driven experiments, and iteratively refining their approach based on the results, and effectively communicating their findings
3. identify issues in the data science workflow, such as data quality, ethical considerations, and limitations of the models, and develop strategies to address them

Syllabus

Calendar Entry:
In this course, students will learn data science step by step through real analytics example: data mining, modelling, tableau visualization and more. Unlike many classes where everything works just the way it should and the training is smooth sailing, this course will give students a data science odyssey through experiencing the pains a data scientist goes through on a daily basis. Corrupt data, anomalies, irregularities, etc. Upon completing this course, the students will enhance their data wrangling skills and learn how to 1) model their data, 2) curve-fit their data, and 3) how to communicate their findings. The students will develop a good understanding of Tableau, SQL, SSIS, and Gretl that give them a safe ride in data lakes.
