Praised by UNM Employees
"Want a solid overview of common Python fundamentals for data analysis? Want to know how to evaluate data, clean it, visualize it, polish it, and feed it into a pipeline for machine learning? Look no further. I didn’t know lists from dictionaries before this, and now I have a lot of essential tools at my disposal to do bioinformatic analysis for my graduate research. Not only that, but all of the course material is available to me for an additional six months after the course ended. Plus, the instructors make sure they are available to help you and set you up for success."
"I appreciate how much effort was placed in making the resources available. All the teachers and assistants were very helpful and took time to address all the problems we had. It was also a very practical bootcamp since we got to participate in a kaggle datascience contest during the week. Overall, this was an awesome bootcamp!!"
"I had taken ML and AI in Undergrad and looking at the curriculum made me wonder.. how can 2 semesters worth of class fit in 5 days? I’ll tell you .. you focus on theory and directly use off the shelf library and have learnt enough to command the parameters."
"This bootcamp helped me to understand the essentials related to data science. It helps you understand the theory behind data science but also emphasizes that it’s all about the data and knowing your data. It was an all encompassing class. I learned so much that I hope to be able to utilize in the near future."
"This bootcamp was the perfect opportunity for me to expand my data science skill set in a low pressure, high positivity environment."
"I really liked it. It exposes you to many different tools and the online material is great."
