Zürich City Business School’s Data Science course is specifically developed for people who desire to acquire knowledge and competence after receiving their High School Degree/Diploma. This Award laces the student with the knowledge with respect to Worldwide Occupational Standards and increasing job oriented skills in varied professional environments.

This award also equips them with transferable skills and necessary knowledge for concurrent business sector across the globe.

Each module comprises different stages of assessment and learning with the right content. It also advises and guide students for the right delivery with relevant references.

This course is designed to help you apply ideas from data science to your work. It is designed for technically minded people and assumes some basic knowledge of computer programming, introducing ideas from data science, data management and data engineering. This Data Science Certificate Programme has a breadth of knowledge and understanding, and aims to provide you with the practical skills needed to tackle a real data science problem by the end of the course.
The objective of this course is to train professionals in relevant areas of contemporary data science through real life cases.

As a student, you will gain a balance of solid theoretical knowledge, and practical skills and application including programming in python, which is one of the most popular programming languages for data science, statistics, data analysis, probability and machine learning. The course’s end project will make you industry ready and will be excellent preparation for careers in a range of data science jobs.

By the end of the programme, data science students will:

· Gain the basics of the data science process, from collecting data, pre-processing it (cleaning/correcting it), performing exploratory data analyses, visualizing data, and sharing analysis results

· Be skilled in using data-analytics techniques and making statistical inferences based on statistical data

· Learn about acquiring, querying and understanding the basic properties of data, analysis, how to extract insights from data and how to report the results

· Be competent in python programming in data-analytic contexts: design, code, and test small Python programmes

· Implement data collection and management scripts using SQL

· Build predictive models using a variety of machine learning techniques and algorithms

Anyone, whether a newcomer or a professional, willing to learn Data Science can opt for it. This course is also open to beginners without any prior knowledge of data science or coding experience. For regular

courses in Data Science, basic high school level subjects are the minimum requirement. Additionally, an interest in statistical analysis and programming will help you master the skills needed to become a Data Scientist.

The structure of the programme is divided into two main parts. In the first part, students will learn the basics such as basics of python, SQL, statistics, data visualization and basic machine learning. Then the second part covers more advanced data science and machine learning algorithms including deep learning and natural language processing, and web application and time series analysis.
