| Registration |
You register for activities through stads selvbetjening during the announced registration period, which you can see on the Study administration homepage. When registering for courses, please be aware of the potential conflicts and overlaps between course and exam time and dates. The planning of course activities at Roskilde University is based on the recommended study programmes, which should not overlap. However, if you choose optional courses and/or study plans that goes beyond the recommended study programmes, an overlap of lectures or exam dates may occur depending on which courses you choose. |

| ACADEMIC CONTENT | |
| Overall objective |
Advanced data solutions and complex device systems. |
| Detailed description of content |
This course focuses on building data centric applications that utilize data to create new insights or features. In doing this, we need to understand how to analyze data and create statistical and machine learning models, as well as learning how to process, transform, and manage data. In managing data, we will go beyond the classical relational databases and cover topics such as parallel and distributed data systems, partial and graph databases, and data from IoT devices. Moreover, we will cover how to put data products, such as machine learning models, into production and monitor their performance (ML Ops). Thus, this course cover both hands-on introductions to data science, machine learning, data engineering, ML Ops, as well as building complex data centric systems that may utilize IoT devices and external data sources as input to statistical and machine learning models that may result in visualizations, features, or effects into the environment. |
| Course material and Reading list |
Course materials will consist of part of books, papers, etc. The specific materials will be announced on Moodle for each lecture. |
| Overall plan and expected work effort |
During the run of the course the students may hand in a number of short topical assignments (hand-ins). Hand-in info:
The course will have a total workload of 270 hours consisting of approximately:

| Form of examination |
Individual oral exam based on a written product..
The character limit of the written product is maximum 48.000 characters, including spaces. The character limits include the cover, table of contents, bibliography, figures and other illustrations, but exclude any appendices. Time allowed for exam including time used for assessment: 20 minutes. The assessment is an overall assessment of the written product(s) and the subsequent oral examination. Permitted support and preparation materials for the oral exam: All. Assessment: 7-point grading scale. Moderation: Internal co-assessor. |
| Form of Re-examination |
Samme som ordinær eksamen / same form as ordinary exam

| Examination and assessment criteria |
At the beginning of the exam, the student draw a random number. Each number will correspond to an exam topic. (The list of exam topics roughly corresponds to the different classes and will be announced at the beginning of the course). The student will then present on the topic (3-5 min), followed by questions about it from the examiners (5-10 min). At the end, the examiners might relate their questions to the full curriculum (i.e., some of the other exam topics). For each of the possible exam topics (curriculum), the student is expected to know the central concepts, methods, theories, and problems discuss in class and be able to explain and exemplify them. Moreover, for those exam topics where there are hand-in exercises, the student will be expected to be able to explain how they would solve (or solved) the exercise (and details of what code would be needed (or that they used)). |
