Trying to enter the Data Science world with a Master's degree and a few online courses is not quite enough, as it cannot enable a new graduate to think like a domain expert who could help formulate the right questions. Even with the right questions, students like me have to demonstrate the ability to apply the right concept to solve the problem. Divergence Academy's Data Science 60 hr course bridges the gap that students seem to have, between the generic exposure of concepts and the curren...

Divergence Academy's Data Science 60 hr course bridges the gap that students seem to have, between the generic exposure of concepts and the current industry standards and expectations.
I really enjoyed this course. I liked the in-class demos/examples to help remember the material. It was a nice reward for working hard throughout the course. I would recommend this course to those looking into Data Science.

I was part of the 17th cohort for the Data Science Part-Time / 60-Hour Weekend course at Divergence Academy. As an aspiring data science professional, I am so glad that I took this course under the tutelage of Scott Love and Vish Puttagunta. Both Scott and Vish taught the course material in a fashion that emphasized less on theory and more on practice, which satisfies the expectations of industry.

I was part of the 17th cohort for the Data Science Part-Time / 60-Hour Weekend course at Divergence Academy. As an aspiring data science professional, I am so glad that I took this course under the tutelage of Scott Love and Vish Puttagunta. Both Scott and Vish taught the course material in a fashion that emphasized less on theory and more on practice, which satisfies the expectations of industry. I especially liked how Vish made linear and logistic regression, neural networks, and Naive Bayes relatable, by conceptualizing and teaching these supervised machine learning techniques in a human and comprehensible fashion. Scott and Vish also shared their insights of the industry's expectations towards data scientists and stressed the art of communicating data findings to domain experts, external customers, and management in their specific language. Both instructors always sustained my attention throughout each five-hour course day, unlike online data science courses where I can easily daydream while watching 15 to 20-minute lecture videos. The Jupyter Notebooks provided in this course are full of valuable Python code to reference for data science projects. My classmates and I also got our hands dirty with the latest tools like Deep Cognition and Spark. The only improvements that I would incorporate into this class is to commit some time to web scraping, regularization of regression with lasso and ridge regression, and time-series analysis.
This Data Science course spearheaded by Vish and Scott ticked a lot of boxes for me unlike the other data science courses available online. The telling difference was in the way the instructors helped me get my foundations right and gave me the ability to analyze the problems in an effective way. A lot of work went into compiling the course work that is relevant to the current industry standards and the assignments helped me dwell deep into the concepts. I was introduced to some pret...
This Data Science course spearheaded by Vish and Scott ticked a lot of boxes for me unlike the other data science courses available online. The telling difference was in the way the instructors helped me get my foundations right and gave me the ability to analyze the problems in an effective way. A lot of work went into compiling the course work that is relevant to the current industry standards and the assignments helped me dwell deep into the concepts. I was introduced to some pretty cool data science tools that are being used by the top technology companies. I would recommend this course for anyone looking to get their feet wet in the data science/Machine Learning world.
As an aspiring data scientist and a recent graduate, I had decided to complete numerous data science courses online. I presumed I was quite proficient at data science and even marketed myself to recruiters as one. I could not have been more wrong. Data science is not something which can be learned by conventional means. It needs a certain level of business acumen and several hours of guided teaching.

As an aspiring data scientist and a recent graduate, I had decided to complete numerous data science courses online. I presumed I was quite proficient at data science and even marketed myself to recruiters as one. I could not have been more wrong. Data science is not something which can be learned by conventional means. It needs a certain level of business acumen and several hours of guided teaching. Online courses which claim to teach you data science within a few hours is not even close to enough. Divergence Academy satisfied all my shortcomings. It provided me with the opportunity to learn from and interact with some of the best-established data scientists. I was able to land my first data science job before the course concluded. I would strongly recommend this course to people who are extremely keen on becoming data scientists and are ready to put in the work!
Practical and Theory combined together give a very good perspective of Data Science for anyone who wants to learn this field. Classwork/labs + Homework greatly help, but make sure that you invest the time to do them with due dilligence.
Took the 6 week-end Datascience course at Divergence Academy. Vish Puttagunta (Instructor) is one of the best instructor in dfw area and his approach & the curriculum he built towards this course is perfect. The course is not just theory or a bunch of slides its completely hands-on course every week where I got to know about building models in Python Pandas, Spark, Scala, Statistical modelling & deep learning techniques at a scale with cutting edge cloud tools like google collab &...
Took the 6 week-end Datascience course at Divergence Academy. Vish Puttagunta (Instructor) is one of the best instructor in dfw area and his approach & the curriculum he built towards this course is perfect. The course is not just theory or a bunch of slides its completely hands-on course every week where I got to know about building models in Python Pandas, Spark, Scala, Statistical modelling & deep learning techniques at a scale with cutting edge cloud tools like google collab & Microsoft Azure. Highly recommended course for someone who is looking into a full time career in DataScience or if they want to bring the value to company by communicating with c level executives and build a data science center of excellency team.
Divergence Academy was really helpful for me to understand the bigger picture of data science. Compared to online courses, listening from the instructor (Viswanath), who has a lot of experience on various data science projects with lots of companies, definitely helps you to understand what kind of problems you might encounter as a data scientist and what tools are available to use. Data science is a field where you need to bring information from various fields together. Divergence Ac...

The experience I have here is awesome. Vish does not only cover normal python and ML algorithm but also scala and cloud platform. He also provides a lot of helpful insights about how the industry works and how the data scientists approach the problem. The classmates here are also from many different backgrounds and it is a great opportunity for me to learn from others. I definitely think this 60-hr course is helpful for me.
