This Specialization is intended for students and professionals in computer science and data science seeking to develop advanced skills in probability and statistical modeling. Through three comprehensive courses, you will cover essential topics such as joint probability distributions, expectation, simulation techniques, exponential random graph models, and probabilistic graphical models. These courses will prepare you to analyze complex data structures, conduct hypothesis testing, and implement statistical methods in real-world scenarios. By the end of the Specialization, you will be equipped with the practical tools and theoretical knowledge needed to make informed decisions based on data analysis, enhancing your capabilities in both academic and industry settings. Additionally, you will gain hands-on experience with programming tools like R, which is widely used in the industry for statistical computing and graphics, making you a competitive candidate for roles that require data analysis, modeling, and interpretation skills in technology-driven environments.

Häufig gestellte Fragen
The specialization is designed to be completed at your own pace, but on average, it is expected to take approximately 3 months to finish if you dedicate around 5 hours per week. However, as it is self-paced, you have the flexibility to adjust your learning schedule based on your availability and progress.
You are encouraged to take the courses in the recommended sequence to ensure a smoother learning experience, as each course builds on the knowledge and skills developed in the previous ones. However, you are not required to follow a specific order, and you can take the courses in the order that best suits your needs and prior knowledge.
This course is completely online, so there’s no need to show up to a classroom in person. You can access your lectures, readings and assignments anytime and anywhere via the web or your mobile device.
