This introductory course has cleared up quite a few of the misconceptions I had regarding Data Science and its tools, which I'm really thankful for, because now I can go past the barrier of the uncertain unknown that, for me, this topic was surrounded with before.
The course has also outlined many applications for Data Science, its best practices and planning techniques, and as such has made me want to delve deeper into the other aspects of DS as well.

This course helps me through a lot to learn about the Data Science. About my journey to become Data Scientist was given to me an opportunity to took this course. I am grateful for this course which I owe to the IBM company to support my journey to become part of their online platform course and to become Data Scientist someday. I will strive to continue again and study hard to get my Professional Data Science Certificate to this privilege opportunity.

I am completely new to this field, I was worried that what if i can't do this? What if i can't understand? But, here the classes, Quiz, Assignment, Presentation of classes or Videos is so, nice that I understood each and every topic and not at all felt to me like I have completed my course also. I mean listning to 2 min, 5 min videos will not affect you but the content was really cool. Thanks to every one who involved in this presentation / Data.

This course was delivered with goal of providing clear understanding of the course objectives. The tutors were very passionate. Thanks to Prof. Murtaza Haider. PhD. who speak to the heart of the topics and especially on the personality traits of a data scientist. Stephen Sherman ("Garbage in garbage out'), Shingai Manjengwa, Mandeep Kaur, Luis Martins, Diana Zarate Diaz and final but not the least the incredible Prof Norman White. Great people!

I am so impressed with coursera – the courses; the manuals which are actually usable, readable and understandable; and the instructors. If I ever need additional training, you will be my first choice!"
I cannot express how great the instructor was and the overall content of the material. I would defintely recommend this to my co-workers as well as friends. I will be looking into taking more of these classes in the near future. Thank you!"

The course turned out to be more informative and useful than I thought. I took it after already learning the Python, Data Visualisation, just for the additional knowledge' sake but it turned out to be very insightful, analytical and informative about the different paths aspiring data scientists take. I particularly liked the combination of videos with students, in-depth interview with Dr White, a seasoned data scientist, and PhD researchers.

Good overview of Data Science. There were a few glitches (eg, it said the lab would take 30min but it took only about 5min so I was confused if I had done it right or if I was missing something; I did get feedback/assistance on this issue from an instructor within a couple days). But overall, I felt like it presented a lot of useful basics about data science - how it came to be, how it is used, and what qualities makes a good data scientist.

Curso muito bem estruturado e explica vários conceitos a serem aprofundados com cursos, leituras e práticas. O destaque deste curso são as explicações dos especialistas na área sobre Ciência de Dados. O artigo final explicando o passo a passo seguido pela personagem fictÃcia até o seu primeiro projeto em ciência de dados é fantástico. Vale muito a pena fazer o curso e é um verdadeiro estÃmulo a se aprofundar na área de Ciência de Dados.

A very helpful course that serves as an introduction to the world of Data Science. The course content is very informative and well-polished in my opinion. Eminent figures from the Data Science world talk and disseminate knowledge in a very straight forward way. The infographic videos are top-notch. Crucial excerpts from Dr. Murtaza Haider's book "Getting Started with Data Science: Making Sense of Data with Analytics" were very helpful.

The course provided a good overview of what a data science study entails. It included the sharing of the practical experience by the professors and data science students. I particularly like the peer-graded assignment where it serves as a platform for me to explain my understanding on the information and knowledge digested from this course. I would recommend this course for those who are curious to know about data science in general.

Very informative introduction to Data Science. I liked how they describe the Data Science, Data Scientist. It was made clear that data science is not only a job but it is kind of a life style. And, while watching you become aware of the act that as an engineer you are a data scientist without knowing. Becoming aware of it makes you want to learn more about the tools you can use to make it more efficient. Thanks to all course Staff.

If you are just starting your Data Science journey or are simply curious what it means (as it's a term that is getting more popular and is being thrown all over the internet), this course will give you the answer set in the course's name "What is Data Science?".
Careful, the people explaining in the videos show a genuine interest in the subject and it might rub in. It might even spark your curiosity and go on further learning.

Excellent introductory course. The data science specialization by IBM presents a debatably perfect roadmap to get started with data science without having prior technical experience. This course itself outlines what data science truly is and helps you get a clear idea of skills, tools and motivation for pursuing data science. I would recommend this course to anyone who is confused if he/she should pursue data science or not.

Yes, I did it and it helped me gain more skills and refreshed on my outdated skills that I learned long time ago. The IBM Data Science Professional Certificate has great content and the instructors are competent enough. I will learn how to structure data science problems and introduce you to the entire data science workflow. The big advantage I will learn is how to use cloud to develop and deploy machine learning models

The course effectively covered key concepts in data science and database management, presenting material in a clear and engaging manner. It provided practical skills through hands-on exercises, enhancing real-world application. However, more supplemental resources and opportunities for peer interaction could improve the overall experience. Overall, it was a valuable learning experience, worth the time and investment.
