The Capstone course aims at providing students with an opportunity to integrate and apply the
algorithms, methods and tools they have learned throughout the program to solve real-world data
analysis problems that have an interdisciplinary nature. Students will conduct a team-based project
that involves the main aspects of the data analytics process, and will submit a consolidated report
and give a presentation at the conclusion of the project. The course serves as a final preparation for
students entering into the profession. Students get experience in working as teams, participating in
project planning and scheduling, writing reports, giving presentations, and interpreting results in a
professional manner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

project is expected to map to the following overall flow (the exact nature of data analysis and output
will depend on the questions and objectives, as well as the application domain):
1) Engage client to establish questions and objectives;
2) Critically review technical literature relevant for the project;
3) Organize, clean and pre-process data;
4) Exploratory Data Analysis;
5) Data Analysis-based Inference\/Prediction\/Explanation of the studied phenomenon and\/or
Recommendation of decision\/action based on analyzed data;
6) Data summarization and visualization; data product preparation;
7) Communicate key insights to a non-technical audience with the final data product, including the
written report and oral-digital presentation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
