I was able not only to learn all the tools and methods the companies currently use but also to think as a Data Scientist.

The Big Blue team and their group of talented instructors provided us all the support and guidance we needed to advance in the field.

The curriculum is exceptionally well-structured, placing a strong and much-needed emphasis on the industry’s core pillars: Power BI, Python, and SQL. Rather than just focusing on dry theory, the course bridges the gap between academic concepts and real-world applications, which is exactly what professionals need in today’s job market.However, prospective students should go in with their eyes wide open. This is an incredibly intensive program that demands hard work, discipline, and a significant time commitment. The pace is fast, and the learning curve can be steep, especially when transitioning between writing complex SQL queries and scripting in Python. Attending the lectures alone is simply not enough; to truly absorb the material and keep up with the curriculum, you must be prepared to dedicate many hours of personal study and hands-on practice outside of class.When it comes to the faculty, the experience was somewhat mixed. While the majority of the instructors were highly knowledgeable and industry-savvy, there were definitely a few professors who could have provided more support. At times, certain complex topics felt rushed, and a bit more patience or guidance would have been beneficial for the students struggling to keep up. Ultimately, because the support can vary depending on the instructor, a large part of the learning process is left to the individual’s own initiative, adaptability, and drive.Despite these minor inconsistencies in teaching support, the program’s overall value remains undeniable. It equips you with the exact technical toolkit demanded by employers, provided you are willing to put in the sweat equity. If you are looking for an easy ride, this isn't it—but if you are ready to work hard and push your limits, I highly recommend it.Overall5.0Curriculum4.0Job support4.0Instructors4.0 -
