Developing Your Skills

IDSA Professional Certification in Data Sciences prepares students to expand their career prospects or change career paths by developing foundational data science skills. Candidates for the Professional Certification, a non-degree, part-time program, are required to complete a minimum of four required courses: Algorithms for Data Science, Probability and Statistics for Data Science, Machine Learning for Data Science, and Exploratory Data Analysis and Visualization.

Developing Your Skills in Data Science

A data scientist is a practitioner who has sufficient knowledge in the overlapping regimes of business needs, domain knowledge, analytical skills, and software and systems engineering to manage the end-to-end data processes in the data life cycle. Data scientists and data science teams solve complex data problems by employing deep expertise in one or more of these disciplines, in the context of business strategy, and under the guidance of domain knowledge. Personal skills in communication, presentation, and inquisitiveness are also very important given the complexity of interactions within Big Data systems.
