Data Analytics Second Focus
Data Analytics
The Data Analytics Second Focus
The Data Analytics (DA) second focus prepares students from a wide range of disciplines to use data to address problems in both their chosen fields and in multidisciplinary settings. The second focus provides the level of understanding and computational skills necessary to do data analysis, modeling and simulation, and data visualization, and grasp the concept of how data is used to make decisions and predictions about the future. Students learn various tools that can be used to make sense of data, and how to identify the ways in which data are used to manipulate the message conveyed. Issues of algorithmic bias, data ethics, and the power exercised by those who control data and make decisions about its use are also addressed.Requirements
The following courses are needed for a second focus in Data Analytics:
- CMSC 121 Introduction to Data Analytics and R Programming (offered fall & spring semester)
