Keio University FinTEK Center has decided to hold a free online course "Data Science Course 2022" this fall and has started recruiting students.This is a course where you can learn about data science from the basics, and it will be held following last year when more than 1,400 people attended.
According to the Keio University FinTEK Center, the course will run from October 10 to January 1, 2023.In addition to video learning and confirmation tests, individual and group assignments and a total of five online group trainings are planned.For students who are worried about the basics of mathematics, we will hold a mathematics study group "Mathematics for Statistics and Machine Learning" five times.
The application period is until September 9th.Students are recruited from universities, graduate schools, and vocational schools nationwide, regardless of department or grade.Applicants can apply from the entry site.
In Japan, there is a serious shortage of human resources related to data science, and universities are continuing to establish faculties and departments where they can learn data science one after another.An increasing number of students who do not have a place to study data science at their university or other institution want to learn data science ahead of their future careers and employment.
In response to this, the Keio University FinTEK Center held its first data science course last year, receiving more than 2,000 applications from all over the country, of which more than 1,400 attended.
