Being data literate helps us recognize all the ways we interact with data every day.

Many of us have unintentionally developed digital skills just by living in a data-driven world. Our fast-paced courses will help you understand what data is and why it matters. Using real-world applications, the two courses introduce foundational data literacy topics&nbsp;and&nbsp;practical skills to help you engage with data in meaningful ways – all while avoiding unnecessary math jargon!

Data Literacy Essentials

Whether you are a programmer, an executive, an advisory board member, a tester, a manager, or an individual contributor, this course helps you gain foundational knowledge and skills to consider the issues related to responsible innovation and trustworthy AI. Empowered with the knowledge from this course, you can strive to find ways to design, develop, and use machine learning and AI systems more responsibly.

This course will be released several modules at a time until all modules are available. We expect that each module can be completed in under an hour, and you can work at your own pace to complete the material. As we release new modules, you might lose progress through the material that you have completed, so please make a note of where you are leaving off before exiting the course.

Responsible Innovation and Trustworthy AI

<div> Overview Overview As a doctoral research degree candidate, you will uncover new knowledge either by the discovery of new facts, the formulation of theories or the innovative reinterpretation of known data and established ideas. Your research will use an in-depth understanding of theories and concepts to develop practical solutions for real-world problems. A higher degree by research differs from other postgraduate degrees in that at least two-thirds of the study program must involve research. Although some coursework units may be required, the main part of your work will be in the form of a thesis written under the guidance of a supervisor and associate supervisor(s). Your thesis must, in the opinion of the examiners, be a substantial original contribution to the knowledge or understanding of any field through the discovery of new facts, the formulation of theories or the innovative reinterpretation of known data and established ideas. It must also demonstrate your capacity to conceive, design and complete independent research. Throughout your studies, our faculties will provide you with access to equipment and resources to support your research, and financial assistance to attend appropriate local and international conferences. Why research at Curtin Curtin is widely recognised for applied research firmly focused on solving real-world problems. Underpinning our research endeavours are strong partnerships with industry, business and government, which result in outcomes that greatly benefit the broader community locally, nationally and globally. Our international reputation for being a strong partner in industry-driven research ensures our graduates enjoy outstanding opportunities to become innovators in their fields. </div>
