About this course
This course covers the fundamentals of working with data. Students will be introduced to key disciplines that provide techniques used for working with small, medium and big data today - classical statistics, contemporary data science, machine learning, and data visualization. They will learn about different data types; what constitutes a valid dataset that can be analyzed quantitatively; how data should be formatted to create a valid dataset. The course will also explore fundamental theoretical questions that arise when we attempt to represent social or cultural phenomena as data. Particular attention will be focused on working with social network services data, user generated content, and other types of data about societies and individuals that have emerged recently (such as sensor data) and massive media datasets (images, video, text, sound, code, etc.),. The course will explore fundamental database technologies and more recent techniques for working with real-time data flows.
