Introduction to Data Science
Section Info:
TOPIC: Introduction to Data Science This course introduces students to data science approaches that have emerged from recent advances in programming and computing technology. They will learn to collect and use data from a variety of sources, including the web, in a modern statistical inference and visualization paradigm. The course will be based in the programming language R, but will also use HTML, regular expressions, basic unix tools, XML, and SQL. Supervised and unsupervised statistical learning techniques made possible by recent advances in computing power will also be covered.

Section Title:
DataScience ProgrammingMethods
Section Info:
This course provides the computational foundation for rigorous data science work, both applied and in research. Starting from key foundations (the shell, git, Markdown and SQL), we focus on a solid introduction to programming in R. Next we discuss keys to reproducible computing (R packages, Docker) as well as some computational and algorithmic foundations. Finally, we examine in some detail extensions for better performance, notably using C++ with R. Course Information: 3 undergraduate hours. 4 graduate hours. May be repeated with approval. Prerequisite: STAT 410, STAT 420, and STAT 425 or consent of instructor. Students who previously enrolled in STAT 385 should not register for this course.
