Foundations of Data Science

Foundations of Data Science combines an introductory look into the fundamental skills and concepts of computer programming and inferential statistics with hands-on experience in analyzing datasets by using common tools within the industry. Additionally, the course investigates ethical issues surrounding Data Science, such as data privacy.

Linear Algebra and Differential Equations

Topics include real vector spaces, subspaces, linear dependence, span, matrix algebra, determinants, basis, dimension, inner product spaces, linear transformations, eigenvalues, eigenvectors, and proofs. Ordinary differential equations and first-order linear systems of differential equations; explicit solutions; qualitative analysis of solution behavior; linear structure, existence, and uniqueness of solutions. Partial differential equations.

Differential Equations
