DATA 501 Data Science Visualization Lab (1)
The Data Science Visualization Lab class will provide students additional opportunities to practice and discuss data visualization concepts, with additional emphasis on user-centered design approaches and software development. Students will work in small groups on structured data visualization exercises and UCD methods, and implement simple visualizations.

DATA 511 Data Visualization for Data Scientists (4)
Introduction to the visual tools and techniques used in modern data science to develop and deploy data driven insights. Provides a foundation for visualization to support exploratory analysis, statistical modeling, machine learning, and presentation of results on structured and unstructured data. Students develop and present deep analyses for wider audiences. Course overlaps with: CSE 512; HCDE 511; and IMT 562. Recommended: basic familiarity with computer programming concepts as well as some prior experience working with data using programming languages like R or Python. Offered: A.

DATA 512 Human-Centered Data Science (5)
Fundamental principles of data science and its human implications. Data ethics, data privacy, differential privacy, algorithmic bias, legal frameworks and intellectual property, provenance and reproducibility, data curation and preservation, user experience design and usability testing for big data, ethics of crowdwork, data communication and societal impacts of data science. Offered: A.

DATA 514 Data Management for Data Science (5)
Introduces database management systems and techniques that use such systems; data models, query languages, database tuning and optimization, data warehousing, and parallel processing. Intended for professional students and non-CSE-majors. Offered: jointly with CSE D 514.

DATA 515 Software Design for Data Science (5)
Introduces software design and engineering practices and concepts, including version control, testing, and automatic build management. Intended for professional students and non-CSE-majors. Offered: jointly with CSE D 515.

DATA 516 Scalable Data Systems and Algorithms (5)
