Browse Hierarchy SPA4131: Introduction to Data Science

Back to NS-SPCS-PHAS: Department of Physics and Astronomy
This module aims to introduce you to the field of data science, which concerns the collection, curation, analysis, and statistical interpretation of different kinds of data. You will explore the many different ways that data are collected, stored, used, and abused by organisations, and the consequent impacts on society. You will also learn how to collect and store data in a robust manner, and avoid misleading biases and selection effects that can lead to erroneous conclusions; how to query large collections of different types of data using the SQL query language; how to perform simple statistical tests on the data; and how to visualise the results of your investigations and in a clear and informative way.
