CIS 290 — Information Systems Capstone
This course focuses on how data is collected, stored, transformed, manipulated, analyzed, and visualized in order to gain and present actionable insights. Through hands-on activities and action-oriented projects with industry partners, this course aims to prepare students with the data literacy needed to become not only critical consumers of the data (science) encountered in daily life, but also skilled data scientists who can produce the insights from real-world data. Using the relationships between variables, students learn about how data is used to predict future outcomes, and how to use data to answer questions about the company’s products.
