FUNDAMENTALS OF DATA SCIENCE
CERTIFICATE
Data Science is wholly different from many professions since it requires command of four distinct pillars of knowledge (Programming, Database, Data Visualization, and Machine Learning), each its own discipline. This additional certification, conferred upon students when they have completed both the Business Intelligence Certificate and the Machine Learning/Artificial Intelligence Certificate, acknowledges the significant time and effort spent learning how these pillars of knowledge work together to solve problems only data science can solve.
