Internet Fundamentals and Data Analytics
Academic Engagement Phase 1 meeting
In this 4-hour course we want to provide the audience with a better understanding of the Internet and its operation. The first part covers technical services and organisations that form the fundamentals of the Internet ecosystem. Equipped with this knowledge we dive into some of the latest tech buzzwords and end this part with an interactive session on the disruptive force of the Internet.
The second part of the course is tailored towards a more practical approach and teaches all the building blocks a data scientist needs to know with regards to the Internet. Important data sets are presented along existing and future applications of these data sets.
Audience
The course is open for university faculty, students, industry professionals and all other interested parties. Previous experience is not required!
