Data Analyst
Clean up messy data, uncover patterns and insights, and communicate your findings. You'll start with an introduction to data analysis tools, including Jupyter Notebook, NumPy, pandas, and Matplotlib. Using these tools, you will ask questions about data and answer them through data collection, exploration, wrangling, and visualization. This intermediate-level program includes real-world projects where you will choose your own datasets, research questions, and analysis approach. As you progress through the program, each course will repeat the data analysis process while introducing more advanced techniques, such as applying data imputation to fill in missing data and applying appropriate encodings when developing data visualizations.
