explaining the science, we help you build on that foundation in a practical manner, with an emphasis on the hands-on implementation of those
ideas in the Python programming language. This course is the first in a four course specialization in Data Science and Machine Learning in
Asset Management but can be taken independently. In this course, we cover the basics of Investment Science, and we'll build...

Awesome Course, Great instructors that give a nice balance of theory and practice, the practice is very hands-on and will help you understand the theory and give you useful tools from the first week.

There is some outdated information in the code part, so the programming may have some errors occurred, but the remaining is informative.

The theory lectures are a little thin. The python labs are very good. Learning would benefit from some exercises following the labs.

Practical labs are very good though sometimes it rushes a bit.
Lectures can have a bit more details.
Overall it's a good course.

it would be great if this course could be splitted to 6 or 7 weeks; the session of each week is too long now
