Practical Data Ethics

Course overview

It is practical rather than philosophical. The cases are real, recent, and chosen because engineers made specific choices that led to them.

What you will learn

  • Recognise how bias enters a dataset and a model, and what can be done about it
  • Understand disinformation as a systems problem rather than a content problem
  • Apply a practical framework for privacy and surveillance questions
  • Ask the questions that catch a harmful design before it ships
