Final Project:
For the project you will harvest/choose a unique data set. This data set should be used to answer a
specific question. You may use any of the ways discussed so far in class to harvest/scrap a dataset to
address your problem area. Try to be creative! You can look at sites like data.gov, dataworld, World

Guidelines:
• The dataset may not already exist, so scrap it from scratch
• It is ok if you get an inconclusive answer if the data just doesn't show a clear answer. You do
have to prove that your technique and methods were a correct attempt at solving the problem
however.
• Data can be related to any field (financial, educational, agricultural….)
• Data does not have to be “big” you may simply be looking at 1-2 webpages or a small excel
sheet. You will need to get that data analyzed using at least two concepts/statistical methods
we learned in this course and present your findings.
