The 4-month training in Data Science (Gold Package) provides in-depth and high skill data science knowledge needed for a data scientist. The participants learned more than 8 modules including Big Data Intelligence and Analytics using\u00a0in-house technology\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0cost-effective big data platforms<\/em>. Several scripting languages such as R\/Python\/Hadoop are implemented to integrate various data science formats and platforms for advanced analytics with high-quality dashboard visualisation. More than 85% of this training focuses on the practical activities using intensive industries datasets ranging from implicit information digestion to explicit analytics.\u00a0 Various industries are also involved in the training in which the industries will share their company problems, while the participants will take an optimal action to solve these problems using their data science skills.<\/p>\n

The Director of UTM Big Data Centre, Professor Dr Siti Mariyam Shamsuddin in her speech thanked the Ministry of Higher Education especially Jabatan Pendidikan Politeknik (JPP) and Jabatan Pendidikan Kolej Komuniti (JPKK) for the continued trust and support in the centre to conduct the training. The centre which actively works together with international and local industries such as NVIDIA, Jeppesen-Boeing and Astro Awani Network Sdn. Bhd will always be passionate in materialising the deployment of Big Data Science knowledge and skills in the real world. UTM through its Big Data Centre is committed to serving as \u201ca university hub for big data intelligence analytics, high-performance human cleverness and nature computing as well as a grooming avenue for more data scientists to support the\u00a0Malaysian Industrial Revolution 4.0<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n
