This course felt lacking in concepts and quizzes material. I think this course should be redone so that the teaching material can be made better.
Integral Calculus and Numerical Analysis for Data Science
Are you interested in Data Science but lack the math background for it? Has math always been a tough subject that you tend to avoid? This course will provide an intuitive understanding of foundational integral calculus, including integration by parts, area under a curve, and integral computation. It will also cover root-finding methods, matrix decomposition, and partial derivatives. This course is designed to prepare learners to successfully complete Statistical Modeling for Data Science Application, which is part of CU Boulder's Master of Science in Data Science (MS-DS) program.

Reviewed Dec 8, 2025A decent course. Lots of mistakes and the last module seems rushed. Got a taste of concepts such as gradient descent, directional vectors, eigenvectors, etc., but didn't feel like the intuition behind these techniques was fleshed out very well.

Reviewed Nov 15, 2023One of the best lectures I have attended in the applied mathematics combining to numerical analysis in optimization and data science. Whole Specialization gives the essential tool set in Mathematics and Modeling in Data Science by case mathematical examples.

Reviewed Oct 1, 2022Too simple and you can finish this course in only a few hours. Definitely not for having a thorough understanding of the topics.

Reviewed Feb 21, 2025Quick last course of the specialization. Great way to freshen up on integrals and partial derivatives, with a short intro of SVD and gradients. Would have liked a deeper intuitive explanation of the uses of SVD but it's okay for a quick overview.
