BIO-449: Understanding statistics and experimental designThis course is neither an introduction to the mathematics of statistics nor an introduction to a statistics program such as R. The aim of the course is to understand statistics from its experimental design and to avoid common pitfalls of statistical reason ...
MSE-213: Probability and statistics for materials scienceThe course establishes the concepts of statistical analysis, probability theory, and data analysis. This includes standard statistical tests, correlation analysis and experimental design. It introduces computational statistical methods to analyse large dat ...
CS-401: Applied data analysisThis course teaches the basic techniques, methodologies, and practical skills required to draw meaningful insights from a variety of data, with the help of the most acclaimed software tools in the data science world (pandas, scikit-learn, Spark, etc.) ...
CS-411: Digital educationThis course addresses the relationship between specific technological features and the learners' cognitive processes. It also covers the methods and results of empirical studies: do student actually learn due to technologies? In fall 2025, P. Dillenbourg w ...
COM-406: Foundations of Data ScienceWe discuss a set of topics that are important for the understanding of modern data science but that are typically not taught in an introductory ML course. In particular we discuss fundamental ideas and techniques that come from probability, information the ...
MGT-418: Convex optimizationThis course introduces the theory and application of modern convex optimization from an engineering perspective. ...
BIO-617: Practical - Gönczy LabGive students a feel for some of the approaches pursued to understand mechanisms underlying cell division processes, primarily in C. elegans embryos but also in other systems, including human cells in culture. ...
MATH-442: Statistical theoryThis course gives a mostly rigourous treatment of some statistical methods outside the context of standard likelihood theory. ...
MATH-522: Empirical processesWe learn how to control the nonasymptotic and random behavior of collections of estimators, when indexed by classes of functions/sets. Examples range from prototypical estimators used by statisticians, to nonparametric models used in machine learning. ...
PHYS-100: Physique avancée I (mécanique)La Physique Générale I (avancée) couvre la mécanique du point et du solide indéformable. Apprendre la mécanique, c'est apprendre à mettre sous forme mathématique un phénomène physique, en modélisant la situation et appliquant les lois de la physique. ...
MGT-581: Introduction to econometricsThe course provides an introduction to econometrics for economics and financial applications. The objective is to learn how to make valid (i.e., causal) inference from economic and social data. ...
MATH-131: Probabilités et statistiqueLe cours présente les notions de base de la théorie des probabilités et de l'inférence statistique. L'accent est mis sur les concepts principaux ainsi que les méthodes les plus utilisées. ...
CS-500: AI product managementThe course focuses on the development of real-word AI/ML products. It is intended for students who have acquired a theoretical background in AI/ML and are interested in applying that toward developing AI/ML-oriented products. ...
MATH-444: Multivariate statisticsMultivariate statistics focusses on inferring the joint distributional properties of several random variables, seen as random vectors, with a main emphasis on uncovering their underlying dependence structure. This course offers a broad introduction to its ...
