CSIT 107 - Introduction to Data Science

(3,2) 4 Credits
Prerequisite(s): MATH 030 Intermediate Algebra  
Introduction to Data Science will provide students with data literacy skills needed to understand the role of data in society as well as the tools and techniques to retrieve, tidy, clean and visualize data in preparation for statistical analysis. R and the R Studio environment will be used to work on assignments and projects that require both programming skill and statistical reasoning. A unique feature of this course is the use of R to demonstrate statistical concepts using simulations. No prior knowledge of this is required. Prediction and classification in machine learning models will be introduced as well as ethical issues surrounding the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning.
