Learn Data Science

Starting Point

If you have the necessary background in math, statistics, and computer science; then it is a good time to learn some data science specific skills. Coursera just recently launched a course specifically devoted to Data Science. It is titled: Introduction to Data Science. The course is being taught by Bill Howe of the University of Washington’s eScience Institute. I believe this course is an excellent place to start. I am very excited about this course.

      Did you complete that course online or on-campus? I am not familiar with Dr. Howe, so I am glad you speak highly of him.

      Thanks,
      Ryan
