Final project
• the last ~4 weeks will work towards a larger, final project
• there will be a short design phase and a short final presentation
• choose your own problem to study (I'll have some suggestions, too.)
• I'd encourage you to connect R and our Data Science techniques
to other datasets or projects that you use/need/like, etc.
Academic Honesty
This course operates under CGU's (and all of Claremont Schools')
Academic Honesty policies…
