What you'll learn

This program offers a structured path from foundational skills to advanced techniques in data science. As you move through each level, you’ll apply your learning to practical projects that mirror the kind of work data scientists do on the job, like analyzing datasets, building models, and presenting insights.

Level 1

Python for Data Science

Start coding in Python with variables, control structures, and pseudocode. Build resilient programs using data structures, functions, and debugging techniques. Apply object-oriented programming (OOP), recursion, and shell scripting, and manage your code with Git.

Capstones: Investment Calculator, Task Manager App

Level 2

Data Analytics and Exploration

Work with relational databases and Structured Query Language (SQL) to manage and integrate data. Use Python libraries like pandas and matplotlib to clean, analyze, and visualize data, and create dashboards with Tableau.

Capstones: Integrated Database System, Data Analysis Report

Level 3

Machine Learning

Train models using linear and logistic regression, decision trees, and clustering techniques. Build neural networks with PyTorch and explore natural language processing (NLP) with applications like sentiment analysis.

Capstones: Regression Model, Image Classifier, Clustering Project, AI Text Generator, NLP Script
