The goal of this project is to develop an introductory course for junior/senior computer science and mathematics undergraduate students on the topic of Data Mining. The course will be team developed and team taught at Westminster College by faculty in the Mathematics and Computer Science department. A detailed course description and day-by-day outline including textbooks, supplementary texts used as background, laboratory exercises, homework assignments and summary of lectures will be developed. This paper discusses some of the necessary steps to develop this course.
