This Micro Module will give you tools and techniques in the field of digitalization of the industry (Industry 4.0), dealing especially with artificial intelligence. Learn data science underlying concepts, learn the most frequently used techniques for information and knowledge extraction from big data.  The course includes 18 contact hours and 81 working hours.  
  
Our methodology is focused into “learning by doing” in which lab work will involve solving problems with some level of complexity, such as handwritten digit recognition, emotion recognition from images, image compression, etc. Learners will work in teams and will be guided by an instructor. The implementation programming language is Python (expecting that the students have learned it before). The lab work is strengthened by a rich variety of projects: medical data such as skin cancer detection from dermoscopic images; web data, financial and marketing applications, etc. The students are encouraged to propose project topics, validated by the instructor.

Nowadays, the community in general, recognizes the value and contribution that ethics represents for its sustainability. Identifying and applying the steps of an ethical decision-making process becomes thus central to any business model and may add value to the community where it operates. So, the ethical approach in business and community becomes a current issue, not only in theory but above all in practice. A company's ethical decision process consists of choosing one of several possible actions or policies, seeking widespread recognition and consent, and then advising decision makers to take a particular course of action. All these steps should be applied when thinking about how you can contribute to community sustainability. Therefore, there is a need to make ethical decisions when there are moral dilemmas and most of these dilemmas arise in organizations' relationships with other stakeholders, including the community in general, as they must face various situations that test ethical principles. The ethical dilemma occurs when a person must choose a possible course of action, but with respect for standard ethics. Ethical dilemmas arise in the first place when reporting the organization's economic and social performance, a particularly sensitive situation, especially in conditions of lack of comprehensive information that can create a global image of the state of the economy and the organization's responsibility. The micro-module will introduce ethics and how to make an ethical decision to contribute on improving the community sustainability. What is an ethical decision? Will be pay the efforts? Why is important to identify and solve ethical dilemmas? How to create a sustainable community?

Biometrics goes far beyond facial recognition and an individual's fingerprint. It is a technology that involves security and innovation and results in a pattern identification solution that confirms a person's identity by combining biological and/or behavioral characteristics, with biometric characteristics. Biometric characteristics are a very convenient way to authenticate a person, as they have a high degree of security and cannot be stolen, forgotten, or lost. In any business sector where customer identification is part of everyday activities, such as in banking, financial services industries, healthcare, and telecommunications, biometrics significantly reduces the time consumed in identifying customers/members/patients or identity selection. Taking advantage of the relevance of Biometrics for technological advancement and digital transformation of the industrial sector, this micro-credential aims to qualify graduates for the implementation and use of biometrics systems in their various applications.
