Introduction to Data Science

Learn the core concepts of data science, an interdisciplinary field dedicated to extracting knowledge and insights from structured and unstructured data through a combination of techniques from statistics, computer science, and domain-specific expertise. Learn the entire data lifecycle, from data collection and cleaning to exploratory data analysis, visualization, statistical analysis, developing and deploying models, and communicating actionable insights. Comprehend how data scientists leverage programming languages, data manipulation libraries, and machine learning frameworks to drive business intelligence, predictive analytics, data-driven decision making, and innovative research and development. This course is ideal to build a solid foundation before diving deeper into the theory and practice of more advanced coursework in data science.
