This course provides an introduction to data analysis using the Python programming language. Topics include using an integrated development environment; data analysis packages numpy, pandas and scipy; data loading, storage, cleaning, merging, transformation, and aggregation; data plotting and visualization. Prerequisite: A prior course in statistics and a prior course in programming.

This course develops fundamental methodology to the analysis of multivariate data. Topics include the multivariate normal distributions, multivariate regression, multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA), principal components analysis, factor analysis, and discriminant analysis. Conceptual discussion in lectures is supplemented with hands-on practice in applied data-analysis tasks using SAS or R statistical software. Prerequisite: Graduate standing in Statistics, or instructor permission.

This course introduces methods for presenting data graphically and in tabular form, including the use of software to create visualizations. Also introduced are databases, with topics including traditional relational databases and SQL (Structured Query Language) for retrieving information. Prerequisite: A prior course in statistics and a prior course in R programming.

An introduction to linear statistical models in the context of data science. Topics include simple and multiple linear regression, generalized linear models, time series, analysis of covariance, tree-based classification, and principal components. The primary software is R.Prerequisite: A previous statistics course, a previous linear algebra course, and permission of instructor.

Introduces various topics in machine learning, including regression, classification, resampling methods, linear model selection and regularization, tree-based methods, support vector machines, and unsupervised learning. The statistical software R is incorporated throughout.Prerequisite: STAT 5120, STAT 6120, or ECON 3720, and previous experience with R Prerequisite: STAT 5120, STAT 6120, or ECON 3720, and previous experience with R

This course provides a survey of regression analysis techniques, covering topics from simple regression, multiple regression, logistic regression, and analysis of variance. The primary focus is on model development and applications. Prerequisite: A prior course in statistics.

This course introduces a plethora of methods in data mining through the statistical point of view. Topics include linear regression and classification, nonparametric smoothing, decision tree, support vector machine, cluster analysis and principal components analysis. Conceptual discussion in lectures is supplemented with hands-on practice in applied data-analysis tasks using SAS or R statistical software. Prerequisites: Previous or concurrent enrollment in STAT 5120 or STAT 6120.

This course provides an introduction to various topics in data science using the Python programming language. The course will start with the basics of Python, and apply them to data cleaning, merging, transformation, and analytic methods drawn from data science analysis and statistics, with an emphasis on applications. No prior knowledge of statistics, data science, or programming is required.

This course provides the opportunity to offer a new topic in the subject area of Statistics.
