COGS 108 - Data Science in Practice - is a class offered by the Cognitive Science Department of UC San Diego, taught by Professors Bradley Voytek, Shannon Ellis, and Jason Fleischer. Here is an overview and map of the COGS 108 Organization, which hosts materials and assignments for the class.
The most recent iteration of this class is Winter 2025 quarter, the syllabus for which is available here.
- Slides and materials will be organized by week. All links to class videos, slides, and notebooks used MWF will be included here.
- Discussion Labs are released, completed, and submitted on datahub
- Tutorial Notebooks that run along with the topics of the class and can help as you complete assignments and discussion section tasks.
Assignments and Discussion Labs will be completed on datahub.ucsd.edu.
A suggested reading list (recommended, but not required).
A core component of the class is completing a group project. Details about the final project can be found here.
Assignments are intermingled with your project proposal, checkpoints and final project (due finals week). This is an assignment-heavy course load to get you as much practice as possible. This will require good time management and planning on your part. Start planning ahead now to avoid late submissions and issues later in the quarter.
