Kursuse põhiosa koosneb loengutest ja praktikumidest, kus üliõpilastelt eeldatakse aktiivset kaasamõtlemist ja –töötamist. Lisaks tuleb igal üliõpilasel teha mahukas iseseisev töö, mis koosneb õppejõu poolt ette antud praktilistest andmeanalüüsi ülesannetest kogu läbitud materjali ulatuses. Kasutatavad andmestikud võivad olla kas õppejõu poolt ette antud või üliõpilaste poolt mingi teise aine raames kogutud (nende kasutamine tuleb õppejõuga eelnevalt kooskõlastada). Õppejõuga kokkuleppel võivad üliõpilased iseseisvat tööd teha kaheliikmelistes gruppides.
