This course builds on CSTP 1108 covering applied topics in calculus, probability and statistics which form the foundation of data science and are crucial for understanding and applying Machine Learning (ML) algorithms. Students will learn how these mathematical tools are used to analyze and interpret data, model real-world problems, and support decision-making in the field of data science. Practical examples and exercises in Python will help students apply mathematical principles to real data science tasks, preparing them for the technical challenges of working in this rapidly evolving field.
