Intro to Data Ethics Certificate
We will explore urgent issues of data ethics, including bias and fairness, privacy and surveillance, and disinformation and manipulation, as well as foundations of ethics and connections with broader social trends and systems.
There are no prerequisites, although first-hand experience of working in the tech industry, as well as familiarity with current events will be helpful. All readings will be freely available online.
Intro to Data Ethics is taught by Rachel Thomas, co-founder of fast.ai and director of the Center for Applied Data Ethics (CADE) at USF. Rachel was selected by Forbes as one of 20 Incredible Women in AI, and is a popular writer and keynote speaker on topics of data ethics, AI accessibility, and bias in machine learning.
Join us for the Intro to Data Ethics info session on Tuesday, November 12 at 5pm. The session will be held at USF's Downtown Campus. RSVP online!
