CMPSC 2100 Python Programming II (4 hours)
A project-based continuation of the techniques developed in CMPSC 1100 Python Programming I. Topics include object-oriented programming, algorithm design and analysis, data structures, and general problem-solving techniques (such as recursion) while following industry-standard software development principles.
Prerequisite(s): Grade of "C" or better in CMPSC 1100 Python Programming I or permission of instructor.
DATA 1400 Foundations of Data Analytics II (3 hours)
This course is intended as a continuation of Foundations of Data Analytics I. In this course, you'll learn how Data Analytics are applied within the workforce. Particular attention will be paid to the role of the Data Scientist or Analyst, machine learning and the applications of Big Data. By the end of the term, you will be able to design and execute a range of data-driven experiments. This course is an online class offered through the Lower Cost Models Consortium. The class has optional live sessions.
