Coding Bootcamp Overview

Welcome to our comprehensive Coding Bootcamp! Designed to take you on a journey from novice to a capable and confident developer and data scientist, this program is structured to build both your practical skills and theoretical knowledge in a progressive and immersive manner.

The course is divided into three sequential tiers:

This foundational tier covers the core fundamentals of programming, offering a broad overview of various concepts that form the backbone of coding. These include:

  • Fundamental programming concepts such as variables, data types, loops, and control structures.
  • Functions, detailing how they can be declared, what parameters are, return values, and scope.
  • Different data structures, including arrays, lists, and dictionaries, providing a strong understanding of when and how to use these critical tools.
  • Object-Oriented Programming (OOP), exploring classes, objects, inheritance, encapsulation, and more.
  • Advanced Topics like exception handling, file I/O, and fundamental data structures and algorithms.

Building on the coding skills developed in Tier 0, this tier introduces you to the world of data analysis. The modules in this tier will help you gain proficiency in:

  • Reading and cleaning data using libraries like Pandas and NumPy.
  • Visualizing data to understand trends, distributions, and patterns using libraries such as Matplotlib and Seaborn.
  • Concepts of Descriptive and Inferential Statistics for analyzing and interpreting data.
  • Data Wrangling techniques, such as merging data, handling missing data, and working with categorical data.
  • Basics of Databases, both SQL and NoSQL, for efficient data storage and retrieval.

The final tier takes you into the exciting realm of machine learning and artificial intelligence. It offers comprehensive insights into:

  • The basics of Machine Learning, including supervised and unsupervised learning, regression, classification, and clustering.
  • K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN) algorithm, Decision Trees, and Random Forests.
  • The theory and application of Neural Networks.
  • Introduction to Explainable AI (XAI), and understanding feature importance and model interpretation.
  • Advanced topics in AI, such as transfer learning, reinforcement learning, and natural language processing.

Each tier is designed to provide a blend of theoretical knowledge and hands-on experience, ensuring you're well-equipped to apply what you've learned in real-world situations.
