MUSA 5090 Spring 2024 Final Project

I've included some details about the final project below. If there are any updates to this information, I will make an announcement about it in class and on Canvas.

What's the project?

At a high level, I want to see you incorporate some of the cloud-based components we've been talking about in class into an existing or new project. For example, this could be:

  • a web application that uses data in a database to respond to live requests from the browser
  • a data pipeline that ingests some data and does some analysis on it in BigQuery and visualizes the results in Carto
  • a machine learning model that runs on data processed in BigQuery and visualizes the results in Carto
  • a containerized process (or set of processes) that is run in a cloud workflow
  • ...or something else! The key is that you're using cloud-based components to do it.

If you are already doing data-focussed projects for another class, talk to me about how you might be able to augment that project to fit this class.

When is it due?

Proposal: You must give me a proposal of what you're doing for the project by April 10th. The proposal does not have to be complicated. Just let me know:

  1. A high-level description of what you're doing
  2. Who is on your team
  3. What data you're going to use, and
  4. What cloud-based components you think you're going to use

As you develop the idea for your project, please add it to the spreadsheet I shared in the Canvas anouncement.

Presentation: You should prepare, record, and upload a presentation by May 8th (I'll provide a form to upload your video). The presentation should be 5-10 minutes, and should include:

  1. A high-level description of what you did
  2. A discussion of the cloud-based components you used, and how data flows between them
  3. A demo of your project

Take a look at the video from last year for an examples.

Code: You should also upload your code to a GitHub repository by May 8th.

Can we work in a team?

Yes, I'll allow teams of up to 3 people. I'm not going to assign any teams though. If you're open to working with team members on your project, check the box in the last column of the projects spread sheet.

Do you have examples?

Check out the video from last year's projects on YouTube at the link I shared on Canvas (unfortunately some of the teams forgot to share the screen when they came up, but hopefully you'll get the idea).
