I throughly enjoyed the course and the fact that everything was explained thoroughly. I always enjoyed Dr. White's personal experience with Data Science as well as other Data Scientists point of view.

I love how beginner-friendly this course is. I did not have to panic about not following any lecture since I am new to this field. I know this is the first course but I'm loving it already. <<33

Informative, easy to follow and very enjoyable course!! I've learnt a lot more about data science, data analysis and realised that it isn't as abstract or intimidating as I thought before taking this course. This is really everyday stuff, once you connect the dots. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone trying to break into data science, as I am!!

The course is a very pleasant introduction to the field of data science. Don't expect too much coding or theory - the goal of this course is to let you grasp the basic concepts and ways of thinking.
I already have some experience in data science, but gained more than expected here!
(HOWEVER, the next two courses in this certificate - not on par with this one).

I am very satisfied with the quality of the videos, which are basically interviews, in two ways: The content of the interviewees was excellent - to the point, well spoken. The quality of the sound was also excellent. Overall, this is a very helpful basic course that everyone who starts in, or is already involved with, the field of data science should review.

I liked that you have people from different professional backgrounds provide their definition of Data Science. It makes me feel good about what I am doing, because I studied to become a lawyer, and I found out recently that I am good at analyzing data so I decided to start a career now in Data Science. Thank you to everyone that made this training possible!

As someone looking to change careers, I felt this was a great introduction for me to better understand data science as an industry and profession. It solidified my interest to continue to pursue this path as I discovered that many of my strengths which have made me successful thus far can apply to this field as well once I develop the technical knowledge.

This course has increased the knowledge with very basics and real examples from different industries who they are applying the Data tools to improve the services.
It has also made huge impact on how important the Data is no matter how old and huge the data is. The right tools/programs should be used to analyze the data in structured way.
Highly recommended.

Really liked it. It was meaningful information that gave a holistic image of the field. The quizzes helped focus on retaining information. For the final open question assessment, it would be good to have a suggested length of response. I feel bad for the people who would have to read through my essay about who is a data scientist and what is data science.

Had a great time learning about Data Science, how it is defined, what it entails, how it is used in business, and the affect it can have when correctly applied. Fantastic course and well put together, I would recommend this to any aspiring data scientists as someone that found it helpful, and anyone who just wants to learn about the subject, like myself.

Loves the introductory course. Gave insights on what is data science and what does a data scientist do. Also talked about the various fields where data science can be applied and gave use cases for the same. Explained about the data science process and how a data scientist uses tools to narrate a story to the relevant stakelholders to help deliver value.

My only complaint is that I had to repeat some of the information when time passed by in that I wasn't progressing in the course for over a month. I redid some of the material to be able to continue. I reached out about it because it seemed like my prior work history was lost, for example, tests. Otherwise, the course material was a good introductory.

Actually my university take every student to industry for industrial visit. There every industrial expert will share there experiences and also guide us how to do and solve problems.
In the same way, In this course I felt like interacting with Industrial experts and I learned so much basics in this coarse.
This course must deserve 5 STAR Rating.
Thank You!

The greatest things were - simplicity, the interview formats and in particular Prof White and Prof Murtuza. The animation and slides for this course were great.
There was just sufficient repitition in the course as well to ensure appropriate learning takes place.
Thanks to the whole team that put this course together for novices exploring DS as a topic.

This course is exactly what I expected or even more. I liked the structure and content. I finished this course in four days because it's interesting and exciting. Now I have a clear picture of what is Data Science and what Data Scientists do. It's the first course of my IBM Data Science Certificate, and I'm happy to begin the next one right today.

As an absolute beginner, it was a great experience going through the videos and content. It did address many of the questions I myself had. It may be too basic for someone who knows some data science, but as for me, I really enjoyed it. It's an introductory course after all, it does set the context well in a way that is easy for a layman to follow.

This course has introduced me to the world of data science. It has shown me a realm where data is akin to gold - valuable and precious. To unlock its true potential, data must be processed with care, just like refining gold. I thoroughly loved this course and I extend my heartfelt thanks to IBM and 糖心vlog官网观看 for offering such a learning experience.

A good introduction to Data Science that highly focuses on the insights of experience professionals and some from academia with their holistic view of the topic by encompassing it on their nature of work they are currently inclined to.
Also, the several concepts and methods of Data Science mentioned on this introductory course is beginner friendly.
