Name of the course: Data Analytics & Business Intelligence

Course Description:

Data analysis is the need of the hour. Today, different organizations are generating huge amounts of
data without knowing how to make use of it for their benefit. To change this, machine learning and
statistical techniques are now being to develop predictive models from existing data to forecast future
outcomes.

Objective

Expecting to build a solid foundation of business analytics, this course has been designed to impart
knowledge of machine learning and statistical methods for data analysis. The course shall also
provide sufficient knowledge of python programming language to use for machine learning
algorithm and python/R programming for statistical methods. A brief introduction of neural networks
and deep learning will also be covered.

Target Audience

Candidates pursuing graduation, graduates, Post Graduates (must have studied mathematic at 10+2
level)
