I learnt what is data and how we can retrieve data. The most interesting part is most of the Data Scientists are not having a degree in Computer Science in this course, but still, they have the enthusiasm to learn new things. It made me feel that I can achieve what is need to? by going through this course.

This was a lot of fun and really teaches you the basics of What is Data Science. As someone who is still trying to find their path as a senior year in college majoring in English, data science is a lot of fun, and this course made those thoughts and ideas concrete to go back to school for Data Science!

This course was excellent! I enjoyed the combination of videos from real live data scientists and targeted readings each followed by a mini quiz that taught concepts in bite-size chunks. The hands-on project was straightforward. I went into it confident that I could adequately perform the peer reviews.

A fabulous course and a must for early birds into the world of Data Science and Machine Learning. You will get to know all the terms that make up the world of data science, will get a chance to work on IBM's Virtual AI system on its Watson platform and learn the importance of data in the 21st century.

In reality, the course is so well-furnished that I am able to learn the basics of data science. There are details about which skills you'll need to acquire to be a good data scientist.I recommend that everyone start with the well-furnished course if they want to easily get into the data science world.

This course is the right choice if you want to find your footing in data science. Besides the obvious trio of computer science, statistics and mathematics, understanding your field is key to being a data scientist. The videos help motivate the learner as he or she takes the module's (week's) readings.

I think it does a good job of explaining data science and it takes to be a data scientist. However, there are a lot of typos in the quiz portions of the course, especially the ungraded ones during the videos. Some could be hard to follow or understand for those who English is not their first language.

The goal of understanding what is Data Science and the opportunities involved is totally achievable after taking this course. I am satisfied and aware that in order to have competent skills probably takes not weeks but months or even years. This is an introductory course and I strongly recommend it!

Awesome course - just what I was looking for as an introduction of the fundamentals of Data Science - unlike most other programs that just want to jump right into coding! Now I have the background I need on what Data Science is (and isn't) and how to apply it. Thank you! Well done, IBM and faculty!

Decent starting point for a 9 course schedule. I did find a few grammatical and spelling errors along with some inconsistencies between the course materials and actual work but I think that makes it more interesting and forces you to figure it out for yourself - a big part of learning how to code.

Highly recommended for beginners to get an introduction to Data Science and decide if they want to pursue a career in Data science. Thanks for wonderful content. Just a suggestion is to update the content around Watson Studio as IBM have changed the UI and the slides confuse the student a little.

I liked the approach. For me, it's greatly important to have this time for understand the possibilities, and the responsabilities, almost the philosophic part of a profession, of a knowledge. So the way you've spoken in this introduction is a important part of studying anything.
Thank you so much!
