NYC Data Science Academy offers 12-week, accredited data science and data analytics bootcamps in New York City and live online. NYC Data Science Academy is a nationally accredited Data Science Bootcamp in the U.S that teaches both Python and R. In the program, students will learn beginner and intermediate levels of Data Science with Hadoop, Spark, Github, Docker, SQL, R, and Python packages like XgBoost, Caret, Dplyr, Ggplot2, Pandas, Scikit-learn, and more. The program distinguishes itself by balancing intensive lectures with real-world project work and the breadth of its curriculum. The academy is well known for its industry project-oriented learning experience and well-immersed community established since 2013.
Students will work on at least four individual or team projects showcased to employers through private hiring partner events, student blogs, meetups, and film presentations. The academy also offers strong lifetime career support such as tech interview prep, mock interviews, unlimited mentorships, and 1-on-1 post-interview reviews and feedback from career mentors to help students ace their interviews.

I completed the Data Science bootcamp during the Fall of 2015 and immediately was hired as a Data Scientist the following January. During the NYCDSA bootcamp, I converted my skill set from a traditional statistician/analyst to a data scientist. This bootcamp elevated my ability to apply a variety of advanced machine learning algorithms using codes like Python or R. Today, I continue to use the skills that I had developed during this bootcamp. In my opinion, this bootcamp was successful for me for three reasons:
Course Content:
The course content covered coding in SQL, python and R during my time at the bootcamp. As a data scientist, ability to code in this basic languages is critical to developing and testing statistical hypotheses and machine learning concepts. All machine learning examples had supporting Python and R code to facilitate students' application of these algorithms. This bootcamp covered application of Spark during the last few weeks of the course. Knowing Spark capabilities was particularly helpful in my current position as a data scientist.
The bootcamp covered traditional statistical concepts such as hypothesis testing, linear regression and logistic regression as well as advanced machine learning algorithms such as K-Means clustering and Neural Networks. The bootcamp strategically provided theoretically background for these concepts in conjunction with worked out examples in R and Python. Knowing how to apply all of these algorithms helps me to rapidly move through proof-of-concepts in my current day-to-day.
Instructors:
During my cohort, the bootcamp instructors were incredibly dedicated to helping the students succeed. Instructors were consistently available to answer coding questions on-site in person or off site via slack or email. I was always satisfied that the instructors were able to answer my coding and ML questions rapidly and completely.
Job Search:
The bootcamp helped me find several job interviews towards the end of the bootcamp. It was clear that the NYCDSA had access to an increasing network of employers looking to hire data scientists. During the interview process, I had felt that the bootcamp prepared me to answer all of the data science interview questions during each interview.
It has been over a year since I first enrolled in the NYCDSA bootcamp and I continue experience the benefits of the bootcamp in my day-to-day job as a data scientist. I strongly recommend this bootcamp to anyone looking to make a career transition into the data science field.
