6 courses with the subject DVSC, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
DVSC 1003Introduction to Data Science3
Introduction to Data Science (DVSC 1003) is a course providing an overview and introduction to the essential elements of data science, including data collection and management; summarizing and visualizing data; basic ideas of statistical inference; predictive analytics and machine learning. Students will gain hands-on experience using the specified programming language and web application. Lecture 3 hours per week. ACTS/Department/Number/Title - DASC 1003 Introduction to Data Science.
Programming Languages for Data Science provides a semester-long introduction to basic concepts, tools, and languages for computer programming used by data scientists. This class will introduce students to computer programming and provide them with the basic skills and tools necessary to efficiently collect, process, analyze, and visualize datasets. Students will gain hands-on experience with de novo programming, finding and utilizing packages, and working in both interactive and non-interactive environments. Lecture 4 hours per week.
DVSC 2113Principles and Techniques in Data Science3
This class is an intermediate semester-long data science course that follows an overview of data science in today’s world. This class bridges between introduction to data science and upper division data science courses as well as methods courses in other concentrations. This class equips students with essential basic elements of data science, ranging from database systems, data acquisition, storage and query, data cleansing, data wrangling, basic data summarization and visualization, and data estimation and modeling management. Lecture 3 hours per week.
Data Management & Data Base focuses on the investigation and application of data science database concepts including DBMS fundamentals, database technology and administration, data modeling, SQL, data warehousing, and current topics in modern database management. Lecture 3 hours per week.
Data Visualization and Communication (DVSC 2213) is a seminar providing an essential element of data science: the ability to effectively communicate data analytics findings using visual, written, and oral forms. Students will gain hands-on experience using data visualization software and preparing multiple formats of written reports (technical, social media, policy) that build a data literacy and communication toolkit for interdisciplinary work. In essence, this is a course emphasizing finding and telling stories from data, including the fundamental principles of data analysis and visual presentation conjoined with traditional written formats. Lecture 3 hours per week.
