CareerStart's Data Science career track is a career builder for aspiring data scientists. This course is outlined to prepare students to handle the job of a Data Scientist effectively. The purpose of this track is to provide students a strong conceptual knowledge and lots of hands-on exercises to help understand better and to appreciate the best practices used in the industry. The program is very detailed and totally hands-on. Students will get familiar with the various tools, algorithms, and machine learning principles with the goal to discover hidden patterns from the raw data. The following are just a few of the exercises that students actually perform in class as part of their lab exercises:
This is a rigorous program and you must be willing to devote a substantial amount of time and effort to complete it. Your gains will be in direct proportion to the amount of effort you put into it.
Data science is a multi-disciplinary field that uses scientific methods, processes, algorithms and systems to extract knowledge and insights from structured and unstructured data. A Data Scientist or an Analyst usually explains what is going on by processing history of the data. Data Scientists not only do exploratory analysis to discover insights but also use various advanced machine learning algorithms to identify the occurrence of a particular event in the future. A Data Scientist will look at the data from many angles, sometimes angles not known earlier. Data Science is primarily used to make decisions and predictions making use of predictive causal analytics, prescriptive analytics (predictive plus decision science) and machine learning.
The following basic knowledge is assumed of each student:
The following modules make up the CareerStart's Data Science career track:
In this course students will develop foundational Data Science skills to prepare them for a career or further learning that involves more advanced topics in Data Science. The specialization entails understanding what is Data Science and the various kinds of activities that a Data Scientist performs. It will familiarize learners with various open source tools, like Hadoop, used by Data Scientists. It is designed to go over topics such as modeling methods, introduction to R, map reduce, delivering results, introduction to big data, and Hadoop ecosystem and Yarn.
