WHY LEARN DATA SCIENCE?
Have you ever shopped online and found advertisements strangely related to what you’ve been searching for on facebook and other websites continuously for a week? Or say, you’re texting with your friend and the keyboard suggests to you the exact words that you were going to use in your sentence? How does YouTube show all your favourite videos on your homescreen?
In business, Data Science is successfully adding value to all business models by using statistics and deep learning to make better decisions and improve hiring. It is also being used to crunch historical data and predict possible situations or risk so that we can work on avoiding them.
According to the IMDA, there has been a growing demand for talents in the tech space and Singapore is expected to be short of 30,000 technology professionals by 2020.
