This capstone course allows you to apply data science and machine learning techniques to a real-world business problem, enhancing your skills and preparing you for the job market. You will work with real datasets, build predictive models, and showcase your expertise through a comprehensive project.

In this final capstone course, you will transition from learning to applying data science and machine learning techniques to real-world scenarios. You will assume the role of a Data Scientist tasked with solving a business problem, such as predicting the success of a SpadeX Falcon 9 rocket landing. Through hands-on work, you will demonstrate proficiency in data collection, wrangling, explanatory analysis, visualization, model development, and evaluation.

The course offers an opportunity to work with real datasets, like New York City’s 311 complaints, and tackle questions that can help improve the Department of Housing Preservation and Development operations. You will use Python and machine learning models like support vector machines and decision trees, evaluate model performance, and refine your approach.

By the end of the course, you will have created a showcase project that not only demonstrates your data science skills but also positions you as a competitive candidate in the job market. Upon successful completion, you will earn a skill badge to highlight your expertise to potential employers.

You will learn about:

Applying data science methodologies to solve real-world problems.

Building and evaluating machine learning models, including support vector machines and decision trees.

Using Python and Jupyter Notebooks for hands-on data analysis.

Presenting your findings and making data-driven decisions based on your analysis.
