In this course, students will design statistical experiments and analyze the results using modern statistical methods and software packages. Students will also explore the pitfalls of interpreting statistical arguments and conclusions, especially those involving big data and large data sets. This course will internalize the core set of practical and effective modelling techniques, machine learning algorithms, and sources of data to solve real world problems. Additionally, this course is designed as both a capstone senior project course and a preparation for data modelling competitions such as those presented on Kaggle.com
