Welcome to MIS0855 Data Science Course!
Organizations are drowning in data. Huge amounts of data are produced by social media, customer loyalty programs, smartphones and other gadgets, sensor and transportation networks, credit card transactions, government agencies, and many other types of data producers. Successful leaders make increasingly data-driven decisions, solve problems and communicate by skillfully combining large amounts of heterogenous data. This course teaches you to make sense of the world through data and to do data analysis in practice.
