# Welcome to CS 763!

This is a graduate-level course covering advanced topics in security and privacy
in data science. The field is eclectic, and so is this course. We will start
with three core areas: **differential privacy**, **adversarial machine
learning**, and **applied cryptography** in machine learning. Then, we will
cover two advanced topic areas; this year, **algorithmic fairness** and **formal
verification** for data science. This is primarily a project-based course,
though there will also be paper presentations and small homework assignments.
