Educational Data Science Graduate Certificate
The Educational Data Science Graduate Certificate is designed for graduate students interested in new-often digital-data sources and analytic methods in educational contexts. The certificate objectives include wrangling data and the tidy data format; data visualization; ethics, privacy, and justice in the context of data science; including data from learning management systems; accessing and working with structured (from databases/APIs) and unstructured (e.g., text) data; functional programming for preparing complex datasets; creating static and dynamic data visualizations using R; using modeling interfaces (e.g., tidymodels) for specifying a range of inferential and machine learning models; exploring useful and ethical applications of machine learning in education, and estimation and inference in the context of larger datasets.
