Excellent course for introduction in Data Science Specialization. Material covered not only technical side but also explains significance of soft skills like curiosity, sense of humor, presentation and communication skills

I believe this is very enlightening course regarding the similarities and differences of data science and other areas. I was able to understand what is data science, why it is important, and how it can be used in practice.

It was very informative, and a well put together brief introductory course about data science: its importance, and how we reached to having data science as a course. As well as the benefits of the work of data scientists.

Ce cours permet de mieux comprendre les notions liées à la data science. Facile à suivre et alliant l'utile à l'agréable c'est avec plaisir que je me suis atteler à terminer ce programme. Encore merci à Coursera et à IBM.

The course gives a brief understanding of what data science actually is while correcting certain academic misconceptions. It's very useful to get an idea on whether this field will suit your needs or fulfill your passion.

The Data Science Course was well structured and clearly presented. Dr. Hilda is legendary and all professors were highly motivated and passionate about Data Science. In many ways, I found the Course very exciting indeed.

Its easy to grab knowledge from these set of informations. I am from non-IT background but after taking this course , I feel that anyone can learn Data science and apply it to their own fields. overall course is awesome

what is data science is a completely new way of understanding from my previous understandings. The course was briefly described each and everything very well. Thanks to the entire team who are all worked on this course.

Engaging and interesting materials. The lectures reveal the truth behind the cloak of data science. It shows the variety of skills and background that can define a data scientist. No math course, just business concepts.

A very well crafted course for Introduction to Data Science. This course drives motivation in learners to progress further in the field and encourages the learners to decide a field of study for the application purpose.

pretty basic - no programming needed. but you will need to have a conceptual understanding of some topics and some vocabulary under control. kind and gentle introduction. subsequent courses look to meter in programming

Very Structured. I love the fact that you can't assess the next course without concluding with the current course. This makes this awesome for someone like me who can skip to the preferred section i want to learn from.

Hi,

In this course, you can understand what data science is, what data scientists do, and what tools and algorithms data scientists use on a daily basis Understand the basics so you can start studying data science

This was an excellent introductory course with a positive, inclusive message about Data Science and the future of the field. Thank you to the instructors and course coordinators for a well organised informative course!

El curso no solo cumplió con su objetivo, el cual era explicar en que consistía Data Science, sinó que fue más allá, al incluir también una parte práctica, la cual fue la introducción a Watson Studio. ¡Excelente curso!

Enjoyed the interviews. I thought they provided a pretty good assessment of what data science is, what is needed to embark on a career in data science as well as the important uses data science has on our world today.

A detailed description by experienced professors and achieving data scientists. The readings were very informative. I liked the way they introduced data science. I am excited to go forward, learn and finish the course.

I am taking the course as a part of the certificate program. I think this course is a good start for someone without previous knowledge on data science. For those with some previous knowledge it might seem quite basic.

It was good experience during training. I got to know many thing about data science and data scientist. Earlier i had no knowledge about data science but now i got many knowledge about data science.

Thank you Coursera

It is an excellent course and clearly explains what to conclude from your data and how applicable the results are.Further it helps in statistical calculations and application of right statistical methods on your data.

I advise who wish to gain intro knowledge of what is data science, he went through this course and its really interesting how they describe and teach you the material in simple and different material to read and watch

Very Great Leaning and quality inputs given by the experts. The course made me learn what actually Data Science is. Thanks to coursera for making this course so understandable and gain a holistic view on Data Science.

Clear and concise course, to gain insights over data science and data scientist, I will pursue the full program. This a clear course to do, if you want to know what is all this about and what you can do on this field.

"Data Science is what data scientist do. Data Scientists collect the data , Analyze the data with appropriate tools and find the hidden pattern in the data to solve the problem and tell the story to the stakeholders."

Un curso bastante interesante, cuenta con unas lecturas muy interesantes y te deja con ganas de seguir con los demás cursos del programa. Excelente para alguien que no tiene ningún conocimiento previo de Data Science.
