5-Week Data Science Bootcamp

DETAILED SYLLABUS

Overview

In our endeavour to build data culture and democratize Data Science learning, we are

launching a 5-week Data Science Bootcamp with the help of resources contributed by

academia and industry experts. The online bootcamp will have a series of day-wise learning

modules along with intuitive practice quizzes/challenges.

This is a community initiative, driven by experts and mentors, and you have the

opportunity to attend it for free.

Prerequisites

● Nil, anyone with a passion for learning can make it to the finish line :)

Format

Tutors will provide learners with guided learning paths, resources and exercises to solve. The
entire schedule, practical details, registration details will be put up very soon. A brief summary
of the format can be found below:

● Day-wise modules: Trainers will post day-wise challenges and learning modules (mostly
some of the best-curated content available on the internet that would allow you to have
a structured learning path)

● For real-time communication, we will be using Discord. This medium will help learners
to clear doubts on a real-time basis if they are stuck somewhere. In addition, this will
also allow learners to interact with the mentors and fellow learners
● Live doubt clearing and mentorship sessions will be organized every week based on the
requirements of the learners
