Course Description As part of the Data Science Minor, SYBB 310 is designed to introduce students to the basic tools used in data science, focusing on elementary statistics and building up to regression models. In this course, we will provide hands-on training in statistical programming through the use of the open-source statistical computing language, R. Over the semester, students will gain a practical understanding of the essential statistics needed for data science, and students will apply these principles using R to analyze a large dataset of 10,000 patients’ de-identifed electronic medical records. No background in statistics or programming is expected for this course.
