Data & Analytics

Beginner

Upon completing this course, students will be able to:

- Understand Fundamental Statistical Principles: Explain key concepts such as probability distributions, statistical inference, hypothesis testing, and descriptive statistics essential for data analysis.
- Apply Data Collection Techniques: Design experiments and surveys with effective data collection techniques, utilizing sampling methods to collect data accurately while minimizing bias.
- Perform Exploratory data analysis: Use exploratory data analysis (EDA) techniques to summarize the main characteristics of data through visual and quantitative methods, identifying patterns, trends, and anomalies.
- Utilize Mathematical Principles: Apply basic mathematical principles, including algebra, geometry, and particularly integral calculation, to solve problems related to data analysis and interpretation, and perform integral calculations for determining areas under curves, volumes, and other quantities essential for data modeling and analysis.
