Data Science Accelerators (75 Hours)
The Data Science accelerators are non-credit intense training sessions given daily over the course duration of five weeks. All accelerators include a theoretical component and a significant hands-on component, including in-class problem-solving using popular software packages on real-world datasets.
The accelerators are targeted to practitioners who may have diverse sets of experience and knowledge and do not wish to pursue a degree program. The goal of these accelerators is to provide a wide range of training from refresher courses to theoretical and practical aspects of data science.
Schedule: Accelerators are offered:
- Mornings: Mon-Fri: 9 a.m. – 12 p.m.
- Evenings: Mon-Fri: 6 p.m. – 9 p.m.
Cost: $7,500 / accelerator
