About this course

Data scientists manage large collections of data to extrapolate insights that benefit businesses and society.

As a data scientist, you'll work with many different programming languages, including R and Python, and will look for order and patterns in data. Using these trends, you'll influence a business' bottom-line using analytical techniques, such as machine learning, deep learning and text analysis.

Gain practical skills that allow you to handle data through the analysis lifecycle, from access and processing to modelling and visualisation. Learn about fundamental statistical concepts and build on this with sampling and hypothesis testing methods. Using open source software, you'll have the skills to turn complex, real-world data into meaningful information.
