Data Mining and Big Data for Logistics.
This subject has methodological and digital resources to make possible its continuity in non-contact mode in the case of being necessary for reasons related to the Covid-19. In this way, the achievement of the same knowledge and skills that are specified in this teaching plan will be ensured.
The TecnoCampus will make available to teachers and students the digital tools needed to carry out the course, as well as guides and recommendations that facilitate adaptation to the non-contact mode.
Recognize the concepts of Data Mining and Big Data through the story of real cases and the operation of the main algorithms used today.
Evaluate the different tools available on the market and make a choice according to the logistical needs of the company.
The course sessions will combine the following teaching methodologies:
Theoretical sessions
MD1.Master class: Expository class sessions based on the teacher's explanation attended by all students enrolled in the subject
MD3. Presentations: Multimedia formats that support face-to-face classes
Guided group learning
MD5. Seminars: Face-to-face format in small work groups. These are sessions linked to the face-to-face sessions of the subject that allow to offer a practical perspective and in which the participation of the student is key.
MD7. Case study: Dynamics that starts from the study of a case that serves to contextualize the student in a specific situation, the teacher can propose different activities, both individually and in groups, among their students
