CS-422: Database systemsThis course is intended for students who want to understand modern large-scale data analysis systems and database systems. It covers a wide range of topics and technologies, and will prepare students to be able to build such systems as well as read and understand recent research publications.
COM-490: Large-scale data science for real-world dataThis hands-on course teaches the tools & methods used by data scientists, from researching solutions to scaling up
prototypes to Spark clusters. It exposes the students to the entire data science pipeline, from data acquisition to
extracting valuable insights applied to real-world problems.
CS-401: Applied data analysisThis course teaches the basic techniques, methodologies, and practical skills required to draw meaningful insights from a variety of data, with the help of the most acclaimed software tools in the data science world (pandas, scikit-learn, Spark, etc.)
DH-405: Foundations of digital humanitiesThis course gives an introduction to the fundamental concepts and methods of the Digital Humanities, both from a theoretical and applied point of view. The course introduces the Digital Humanities circle of processing and interpretation, from data acquisition to new understandings.
MATH-600: Optimization and simulationMaster state-of-the art methods in optimization with heuristics and simulation.
Work involves:
- reading the material beforehand
- class hours to discuss the material and solve problems
- homework
CS-322: Introduction to database systemsThis course provides a deep understanding of the concepts behind data management systems. It covers fundamental data management topics such as system architecture, data models, query processing and optimization, database design, storage organization, and transaction management.
