Course Outline
Module 1: Understanding Data
To learn how to get data from external sources into the Python environment and manipulate and
analyze data. Before any data analytics project, it is very important to use statistical algorithms and
methods to analyze data as part of the data analytics process.
- Python packages for data manipulation
- Importing and Exporting datasets
- Basics of analyzing the data
Module 2: Data Wrangling
To learn about how python libraries can be leveraged to deal with data inconsistencies, issues with
data and making them fit for data analytics. This is where 80% of today’s data scientists and
engineers spend their time and it is very important to know how to do it.
- Dealing with data issues and preparation
- Data Formatting and conversions in Python
- Working with Pandas
Module 3: Exploratory Data Analysis
The objective of this module is to understand how to use appropriate statistical methods and
visualizations for descriptive analytics.
- Performing descriptive statistics with Python
- Correlations, Scatter-plots and charts with Matplotlib
- Understanding data analysis with respect to various business scenarios
Module 4: Data Visualization
The objective of this module is to understand basic metric and KPIs (Key Performance Indicators)
of different business cases and plotting advanced interactive visualizations for data analysis to gain
insights from data.
- Understanding basic metrics and KPIs
- Visualizations using Python (Seaborn, Folium)
