Abstract

The popularity of data science, influenced by the trends from the United States around 2010, has significantly impacted the education of various statistics departments at domestic universities. However, it is challenging to find research papers in domestic academic journals that address the efficient teaching of data science topics in relation to computing environment. This article will discuss and propose the establishment of a suitable computing infrastructure for the education and research in statistics and data science departments in domestic universities.

2010년을 전후로 미국에서 시작된 데이터과학의 인기는 국내 대학의 여러 통계학과 교육에 큰 영향을 주고 있다. 그러나 국내 학술지에서는 데이터과학을 효율적으로 교육하기 위한 컴퓨팅 환경 구축과 활용을 다루는 연구 결과는 많지 않다. 본 논문은 국내의 통계학과 및 데이터과학 관련 학과의 교육과 연구에 적합한 컴퓨팅 인프라 구축과 활용에 관한 문제를 논의하고 해결책을 제시한다.
