This is an amazing course, very well designed and the instructors are also great. It contains all the essential things required for a beginner in this field and the reading material is also very interesting. I enjoyed learning this course.

As someone who is far from programming, this course provided a good structure for understanding where data science is used. I gained an understanding of the different types of data, how data is stored, and the basic concepts in this field

Data science is a multidisciplinary field that uses scientific methods, processes, algorithms and systems to extract information and insights from structured and unstructured data. Data science is associated with data mining and big data.

Very nice and realistic explanation of this field!!!

I really like the way the professor gave the examples of what a data science looks like.

Definitely recommend this if you want the very simple and elemantary explanations of data science.

THIS COURSE IS SUCH A NICE COURSE TO UNDERSTAND THE TERM OF DATA SCIENCE AND IT ALSO ENABLE US TO UNDERSTAND THE TECHNIQUES , TOOLS, ALGORITHEMS,DEEP LEARNING,SQL AND OTHER SOFTWARE WHICH ARE NECESSARY TO EXTRACT THE INSIGHTS OF DATABASE.

This course really helped me understand what data science is. I had read a lot of articles before I found this course an I just couldn't pin down what exactly it means to be a data scientist and to do data science until I did this course.

This course was really helpful with respect to understanding Data Science, Data Scientist, Career prospective of Data Scientist and use of Data Science within the organization. Notes of Murtaza Haider are worth reading and understanding.

Absolutely amazing. I did not know going in that the program would be so well structured. The material is great and the videos by professor Haider and professor White is outstanding. Couldn't have asked for a better start in Data Science.

Data Science is toolbox that enables engineers, programmers, scientists, and learners to practice and learn their raw data and structured data to draw stories, facts, hypothesis, findings and conclusions about their data piles and stocks

This course not only teaches the components of Data Science, but it also breathes life into the mindset. From Mathematical experts to jack of all trades---this course walks you through so many of the ways you can make Data Science yours.

muy bueno lo tome en inglés pero las traducciones al español esta muy buena solo hay que poner dedicación y empeño para captar las ideas y las bases en este curso se los dice un Hispano que muy pronto será un Data Science de los grandes.

Understanding Data Science before getting deep into it, is one of the most important steps you can do as a beginner. I would say it is one of the best courses available for this step. I highly recommend this course, Have a great journey!

It was an insightful course, I will never forget what Dr. Haider said about Regression and data science. It totally changed the way I think about those concepts. I will definitely read his book on data science and reflect on what I read.

Excellently explained the basics of Data Science. I love the way of Introducing this IBM-supported course provided by Coursera. Thank you for making me learn in an interesting way. Looking forward o learning the remaining sections. :)

It was a course that I benefited greatly from. My desire to be a data scientist and to improve myself in this regard has increased even more. It's great to learn from data scientists in the industry. I am glad that I finished the course.

It is an amazing course that gives a bird's-eye view of data science as an emerging stream. The course was indeed insightful and I highly recommend the aspirers of data science or analytics to begin this course and have a happy learning.

I highly recommend this course. The topics covered were educational and relevant. The lectures were presented in an engaging and interesting manner. The reading materials were concise and not overbearing. I really appreciate this course!

This course provided me a brief overview of Data Science and I loved the segments by Prof. Haider Murtaza. This course gave me complete clarity on Data Science, careers and future developments.

A big thanks to Coursera and Prof. Murtaza.

I learned the importance of data science and what data science is. The course is really very helpful and easy to learn. good case studies, graded assignments, quizzes all are really a good thing for someone learning courses in Coursera.

Very impressive and easily understood introduction to a subject I’m not that familiar with. Kudos to IBM and everyone else who were part making of this course. Definitely going to enroll to the next course in the specialization package.

I am pretty new to the topic Data science. This course gives a very good introduction to Data science. whats the role of data scientist, Difference between Data science and AI. And how to produce report for the insight revealed by data.

I really liked this introductory class. Demystify what Data Science is, and through very simple lectures and examples clarifies how can you become a Data Science. I took this class as part of the Professional Certificate in Data Science

I was wondering the data science and I wanted to start with this course. This was the best choice that I was able to do. Thanks to the financial aid of IBM, I completed this course successfully and I learned the basics of data science.

Before this course I have no idea about data science and data scientist. After this course I got a complete clarification about data science and data analysis. I learned how data science is used in our daily life in this present world.

A really good starting point to understant the role and functions Data Scientist can perform. I really enjoyed the take on the soft skills that the instructors have which i agree is the most important quality a Data Scientist can have.
