NYC Data Science Academy Launches Online Bootcamp

NYC Data Science Academy, a provider of bootcamp-style data science and data engineering training in New York City, has launched a remote option for students who are not able to attend in-person classes. The Remote Intensive Bootcamp offers live-streamed lectures plus access to prerecorded modules and more than 1,000 practice questions. Students attend full-time, five days a week; the first cohort began this week and runs through June 29.

Course discussions occur in real time, allowing students to communicate with professors, teaching assistants and peers. In addition, TAs are available via a Slack channel to answer questions from both on-campus and remote students.

Topics covered include R and Python coding, machine learning theory, big data and deep learning. Students work on real-world projects to develop the skill sets they'll need to work in the data science industry. The program also provides students with personalized job support, including résumé and LinkedIn profile review, workshops on interview skills and elevator pitches, mock technical interview and coding tasks, mentorship and more.
