O que é ciência de dados? (Coursera)

Offered by IBM,

A arte de revelar os insights e as tendências dos dados existe desde a antiguidade. Os antigos egípcios usavam os dados do censo para aumentar a eficiência da cobrança de impostos e previam com precisão a cheia do Nilo todos os anos. Desde então, as pessoas que trabalham com a ciência de dados vêm desenvolvendo uma área de atuação distinta e específica. Essa área é a ciência de dados. Neste curso, conheceremos alguns profissionais da ciência de dados e apresentaremos uma visão geral da ciência de dados na atualidade.
