Data Science & AI Bootcamp

Coding basic knowledge

Welcome to our Data Science & AI Bootcamp! After a short introductory phase, during which you’ll meet the coaches and your fellow participants, your learning journey begins by building a solid technical foundation. In this phase, you’ll lay the groundwork for all upcoming topics and develop the essential coding skills you’ll need for your success. You’ll start by learning the basics of the Unix shell and how to navigate efficiently within this environment. Next, you’ll dive into the Python programming language and gradually work through its most important libraries, such as Pandas and NumPy, which are essential for data analysis and machine learning later on. You’ll write your first small programs and learn how to structure and execute your code effectively. In addition, you’ll be introduced to Git and GitHub to explore modern and collaborative software development practices. Here, you’ll practice core concepts like branching, version control, and pull requests, which you’ll apply throughout the course. Finally, you’ll gain an overview of the historical development of AI, the relationship between machine learning, deep learning, and neural networks, and an introduction to different data-related career paths. By the end of this phase, you’ll understand the roles of data scientists, data analysts, and data engineers, helping you better assess where you might position yourself in the future.
