Excellent introductory course for beginners. If you don't have a clear idea of what Data Science is or what Data Scientists do, this is the course for you. Testimonies from several people teach you why is Data Science important and what has been / can be done with data science.

I really like this course. I have learned a lot from this course. It's really helping me. I learned, basic concept of data science and the various activities of a data scientist’s job, and methodology to think and work like a data scientist. Personally, I recommend this course!

Is quite scary to say the least to jump in to something named: Data Science, specially when you don't come from a Data or a STEM way of life. After finishing this course I have to say that I just want to keep learning to get my certificate because I'm sure I can make it happen.

La ciencia de datos es un campo académico interdisciplinario que utiliza estadística, computación científica, métodos, procesos, algoritmos y sistemas científicos para obtener, tratar, analizar y presentar informes a partir de datos ruidosos, estructurados y no estructurados.

The course was very informative. Now I have a clear image of what is data science and how it's being applied in a large variety of industries. Moreover, I learned what specifications are required for being a data scientist at a specific field and process of being hired.

Thanks

For someone who does not have much of a clue, this course was an eye opener.

Dr. Murtaza Haider has explained Data Science very simply and effectively through his videos.

Any one who wants to understand what is Data Science at a preliminary level, this is absolutely recommended.

The course was a great introduction to data science. I wanted to study data science but I didn't know which skills I need to be a data scientist. This course made it real clear to how to become a data scientist, why to become one, and what it takes to become a data scientist.

This course does a very thorough job at giving an overview of Data Science and what Data Scientist do. However, I would've liked for it to have delved a little more into how the rest of the certificate course is structured and what to expect; class contents, assignments, etc.

I get an idea about the data science field. Also, I get an idea about the basic responsibility of the data scientist. I'm not a data scientist and not having statistical background but I bit confident after pursue this course I will start my career with data science. Thanks.

This course helped me lot by clarifying all the basics of data science such as its scope, necessity, the prerequisites to become a data scientist, how different industries use data science to improve their performance, what are the components of data science and a lot more.

Very well done. Gave me some insight as to what Data Science is. I think anyone looking into Data Science should check out this course. It'll give you some background as to what Data Science is and help you with the decision of whether you want to dive into the field or not.

It's highly helpful for me to know about Data Science career field.I'm deeply passionate about learning Data Science and the quiz they ask is really helpful in getting knowledge about this field.Hoping to complete my certification soon with enriched knowledge in Data Science

An excellent introductory course, however the exercises seemed to be based almost entirely on the specific context of the reading material, I think the ratio of questions which are generic to data science should be more and would be more helpful in retaining what we learnt.

The course is very informative from the first week to the third. It does gives a brief but solid definition of what data science is and what you should do to become a data scientist and what are the behaviours that you need to applicate in order to be a good data scientist.

It is absolutely amazing for beginners who have no knowledge whatsoever about data science . You dont have to be from a computer science background to take up this 1st course. Its like an introductory where they induce what is data science and the vocabulary related to it.

Coursera offers an astonishing chance to develop yourself! Actually, you can learn anything you want from the world's greatest minds. This is a brand new way of learning new things. I have successfully completed "What is Data Science Course?" with industry level Knowledge.

The course is very amazing and I learned a lot of new thing from it. But the method of Dr White or some one I forgot that man name his method of teaching is very poor no so good. Overall course is very amazing and all teachers and readings and assignments are also amazing

completing this course, i am able to learn basic theory regarding the data science,what are the applications of data science?, path to learn data science, Data science tools and algorithm, Deep learning and machine learning, Data science in business, Data science Careers.

Data science is the domain of study that deals with vast volumes of data using modern tools and techniques to find unseen patterns, derive meaningful information, and make business decisions. Data science uses complex machine learning algorithms to build predictive models.

Excellent course that guides me as a beginner in data science step by step, which is ready to explore the field of data. The material is adequate, including the recording video, compelling ppt, and reading. Not dull, and the length setting for self-learning is appropriate.

This course is a great approach to start with data science. This course has provided plenty of knowledge and applications that are directly told by professors of renowned universities.

I would definitely recommend this course, who wants to pursue a career in data science.

I was overly impressed with how the interview videos made me feel like I was in a true lecture/documentary. That alone allowed me to absorb the information with ease. I'm very excited to continue on my journey in learning more about Data Science and all it has to offer.

Thanks for the hard work you put into the course. I would like to express my thankfulness to you, a great professor, for your wonderful lessons in the class. I also want to thank you so much for your kindness and your great assistance to an international student like me.

I had a really good time taking this course. I went in not knowing a thing about Data Science and this really opened me up to not just what Data Science is but how useful it is in our everyday life. The course itself was very engaging and I would absolutely recommend it!

Muito bom. Super recomendo. Excelente para quem está começando. Traz uma ótima overview sobre Data Science, principais aplicações, principais skills exigidas de um Data Scientist e o melhor, sempre numa linguagem muito clara e agradável de acompanhar. Gostei muito mesmo.
