New Interdisciplinary Data Science for All course!
The ASSETT Innovation Incubator Inclusive Data Science team’s new Interdisciplinary Data Science for All course (AHUM 1825) is open for enrollment for fall 2021! AHUM 1825 is a hands-on course designed to teach students the basics of computational inquiry while also developing a critical understanding of the assumptions, risks, and ethical challenges inherent in the work of data scientists.
This team- taught course blends humanistic perspectives with statistical inquiry and coding principles in order to provide both a foundation for further work in the field and to encourage critical questioning of how we interpret and use data — a critical 21st century skill for all ²ÊÃñ±¦µä students.
AHUM 1825 has no prerequisites and assumes no prior experience with statistics or coding. The course satisfies either a Quantitative Reasoning and Mathematical Skills requirement or the Arts and Humanities General Education Distribution Requirement (but not both) in the College of Arts and Sciences.
