The course is elective as a 'Programming Course' for the MD 3 module (Data Science in Practice) ca. 3-4 hours per week (April - July).
Data Science with Python
Course description
This course will help you raise your level from a beginner's to an advanced one using the programming language Python. You'll be learning about libraries like NumPy, Pandas and how to visualize your Dataset with Matplotlib and Seaborn. Not to mention learning about the many important statistical concepts in the Data Science Domain and it's application using your knowledge about Python. Lastly you'll learn about Machine learning using SciKit-Learn. Practical sessions will teach you how to apply your knowledge and you will get more and more confident in using it.
