2023 CORE: Data Science and Machine Learning

A complete survey of all core skills required on the job

This is an ambitious course. The goal here is simple: Only teach what you need to know for day 1 of your first data science job. No fluff, nothing out of context, no topics that are not relevant to real world applications. We will cover EVERY core topic and tool required for those new to data science: Python, R, SQL, Useful Math/Stats/Algorithms, Tableau, and Excel in depth. The course will cover skills that align with three different job types:

- Data Analyst

- General Data Scientist

- Machine Learning Engineer

You can expect to learn from first principles the foundational topics and tools used in practice today. We will avoid topics that are not useful or are simply too advanced when starting out. Your journey will be guided by the Data Science Road Map, a collection of the best resources gathered through years of experience by the instructor.

In addition, we will survey every important technology required on the job including GitHub, Kaggle, the basics of cloud, web development and docker. With over 200 videos, readings, and assignments, you can be sure you will be well prepared to join the data community.

If you are just getting started or want to fill in some of your knowledge gaps this course is for you!
