MDATA 530 - Data Science Applications

Credits: (3)
This course explores a variety of enterprise level data science applications across a broad spectrum of disciplines. While earlier data science courses focused on distinct portions of the data science lifecycle, investigation within this course follows the full end-end lifecycle for each selected application. Mastery of previous data science concepts enables students to now fully question and understand decisions made throughout the data science lifecycle. Topics selected rely on the analytic and technology skills from earlier courses, specifically R and associated tools. The commonality of data science lifecycle, approach, and technology, regardless of subject area, is emphasized. Students complete a high level capstone project proposal in preparation for Data Science Capstone. Prerequisite(s): MDATA 520 [Online]
