    Course Description:
    CBAD 493 Data Wrangling (3 credits), (Prereq: CBAD 292; CBAD 393 or ACCT 336 or
    HRTM 393), This course is designed to introduce students to the core principles of data
    wrangling, the process of converting raw data into something useful for organizational decision
    making. In this course, students are provided with an overview of various data wrangling
    techniques and tools, with an emphasis on data wrangling in practice. F,S

    Required Text and Other Course Materials:


    1. Python for Data Analysis: Data Wrangling with Pandas, NumPy, and IPython 2nd
    Edition
    2. The Data Wrangling Workshop: Create your own actionable insights using data from
    multiple raw sources
    3. This course also requires students to have access to a laptop that they can bring to class
    with Python 3, Jupyter notebook, and the Pandas package installed. All of these are
    available via installing the latest Anaconda distribution for Python 3.X, available at
    https://conda.io/docs/user-guide/install/index.html. Using Anaconda to install Python,
    Jupyter and Pandas, rather than using another method, will minimize technical
    difficulties.

    26TU U 26T

    with the class. It is your responsibility to lean where and how to access your coastal account. I
    request that emails about the course include the course number in the subject line (CBAD 393).
    If you do not include the course number in the subject it may get filtered out by Outlook and
    your response will be delayed.

    Attendance and Submission Policy


    Late assignments will not be accepted and exams will not be rescheduled without PRIOR
    approval from the instructor. It is the student’s responsibility to notify me if they have missed
    assignments or work due to emergencies. I am willing to make arrangements in the case of
    family travel, events or other unanticipated conflicts provided they are made in advance.

    Academic Responsibility
    Each student has an Academic Responsibility to comply with the Code of Student Conduct as
    written in the Coastal Carolina University Student Handbook. Violations of the Code of Student
    Conduct will not be tolerated. Any such violations will be addressed in strict accordance with
    Coastal Carolina University guidelines. Each student is responsible for reviewing the Code of
    Student Conduct and associated disciplinary policy as outlined in the CCU Student Handbook,
    (coastal.edu/deanofstudents/codeofconduct.pdf .).

    The following behavioral examples violate this code (so don’t do these): Cheating, Plagiarism,
    Perjury, Classroom or Instructional Disruption, Misuse of University Equipment, Misuse of
    University Documentation, Fraud or Misrepresentation. Students who choose to violate the code
    will receive the letter grade of “F” for the course.

    Grading Policy and Procedures


    Enrollment in a course obligates the student not only for prompt completion of all work assigned
    but also for punctual and regular attendance and for participation in whatever class discussion
    may occur. It is the student's responsibility to stay informed concerning all assignments made.
    Absences, whether excused or unexcused, do not absolve the student from this responsibility.

    Each of the following symbols will become a permanent part of the student’s academic record
    when assigned. A, B+ and B, C+ and C, D+ and D, and F carry the traditional academic
    connotations of excellent, good, average, poor, and failing performance, respectively. Please note
    that while I do try to keep Moodle accurate, Moodle is NOT and never will be an official
    representation of your current standing in the course.
