Students will be required to submit a research/application paper/case study on data analytics and its associated technologies. The paper may be based upon one of the topics we cover in the course, but students are free to choose any topic related to data analytics and its associated technologies. The body of the paper (EXCLUSIVE of any Appendices/Exhibits, and References) should be 15 to 20 pages. As this is supposed to be a formal research paper/consultant’s report, it should be submitted as such. In other words, it should be one file, preferably in PDF format. The Appendices/Exhibits can include charts, graphs, spreadsheets and whatever else you deem necessary.
