Goals for CSC 314 are:

• Enable students to create systems that use cloud based resources to do data science and machine learning
• Equip students to understand the ethics associated with data science and machine learning and to make quality decisions about them.

Course outcomes for CSC 314 are:

• Upon completion of CSC 314, students will:
  • have created two projects in the cloud of their choosing: one with data science and one with machine learning
  • understand the fundamentals of data science and machine learning and the ethical issues associated with each.

Program outcomes for CSC 314 are:

1. Analyze a complex computing problem and to apply principles of computing and other relevant disciplines to identify solutions. (Computing student learning outcome 1)
