Learning Outcomes

听

  1. Validate the completion of the IBM Professional Certificate by uploading a Coursera- approved certificate of completion for the IBM Applied Data Capstone course.听乐播传媒 who have not completed the IBM Applied Data Science Capstone course at the time of enrollment will be manually enrolled in the course within 48 hours of enrollment.听
  2. Demonstrate听knowledge of applied data science concepts from the IBM Professional Certificate on Coursera by passing a cumulative assessment which directly tests material presented in the IBM Applied Data Capstone course.听听

Course Description

The IBM Applied Data Science Professional Certificate on Coursera offers a hands-on opportunity to perform applied data science methods, models, and techniques to a real-world problem.听

In collaboration with IBM, the 乐播传媒 Boulder is offering graduate-level university credit for those who have completed the Professional Certificate and are enrolled in CU鈥檚 Master of Science in Data Science (MS-DS) program. 听

To receive 1 credit toward their Master of Science in Data Science (MS-DS) program at the 乐播传媒, Boulder, students will need to upload their certificate of completion from the IBM Applied Data Science Capstone Course (last course in the specialization) and pass a graded assessment covering the material that was learned in the Capstone Course.
