Overview
About the course
Data Science - an umbrella term that encompasses data analytics, data mining, machine learning, and several other related disciplines - is a growing career field that has not been as impacted by COVID-19 hiring freezes and layoffs as other industries.
However, it is a demanding area and one might assume that a data scientist needs to know Python and programming, in general, to be successful. While this might be true to a certain extent, in this Machine Learning - Without Mathematics and Programming course at Singapore Management University we discuss how Data Science is possible without programming, and how to start learning if you are not a programmer.
