COURSE OBJECTIVES

Data science is one of the hottest professions of the decade. Data scientists who can handle , analyze data and contribute to data driven decisions and products are the need of the hour . Data science is an interdisciplinary field focused on extracting knowledge and making better decisions in various domains such as banking, finance, entertainment, healthcare, agriculture, sensors, instrumentation and robotics increasing the value of a data scientist. Hence, this course on Applied Data Science with Python is designed with the following objectives:

1. To expose the learners to the skills required to tackle and solve complex real-world data science problems more sensibly and effectively.
2. To develop research interest towards advances in data science techniques and algorithms.
3. To provide well-rounded insights into the data science algorithms and hands-on activities using python so that the learners acquire the necessary skills to successfully pursue and complete standard certifications.

COURSE DURATION: 4 Weeks
COURSE OUTCOMES:

By the end of this course, the learners will be able to

• Analyze the need for data preprocessing and visualization techniques.
• Demonstrate the performance of different supervised learning algorithms like decision Tree, Random Forest, Linear Regression, Logistic Regression etc.
• Apply unsupervised learning algorithms like K-Means, K-Medoids etc for grouping the given data.
• Formulate and use appropriate models of data analysis to solve hidden solutions to business-related challenges.
• Apply modern data science methods to one or more domains of application (e.g. business analytics, finance, biotechnology, and public health)
