Assigned Department Objectives

Teaching Method

Outline:
To learn through "Data Science I" and "Data Science II" the literacy of information technology, mathematical data science, AI, and security that technical college students should acquire regardless of their field of specialization.
To learn in addition to knowledge the importance of data science in society through actual examples and practice exercises using real data to acquire basic knowledge for discovering and solving problems in the real world and learning how to use data appropriately.
Style:
The class will consist mainly of lectures and exercises using actual data.
In the cooperative education, the team consists of students from all departments as much as possible, and the team investigates and interviews the company in charge, discusses the relationship with data and AI utilization, and composes a report.
Notice:
Presentation, portfolio, and others (reports, etc.) will be evaluated comprehensively. Each evaluation will consist of 20% for presentation, 10% for portfolio, and 70% for others. A grade of 50 points or more is required to receive credit.
A student whose grade is less than 50 points may take an additional examination upon request. If the student is approved for credit as a result of the additional examination, the grade will be 50.
The class plan is subject to change according to the level of understanding of the students.
