    I am currently studying Chemical Engineering. However, after going for industry training as a data analyst, I decided to venture more in this direction and I really learn a lot from this course.

    El curso es bueno, sin embargo, no le doy las 5 estrellas porque: 1- Hay preguntas que están mal formuladas en los exámenes. 2- Hay preguntas mal traducidas al español. 3- Hay mucho contenido repetitivo que se podría cambiar.

    This course is a good overview at a high level of data engineering. It seems to me that it could be better if most of the instruction was not mostly a script. Yet, while I critique this, the script is not terrible.

    The course works well at the very beginning process (first two weeks). It provides you with brainstorms working as pointers to land a job in the filed. Other than that, this course is too far simply.

    Overall, a good course to take to learn about Data Engineering. I recommend it if you have no background in computer science or data. Some of the quiz questions were as difficult to understand.

    O curso é excelente. O único problema é a tradução automática para o português que trava de vez em quando. Então é necessário ter um pouco de conhecimento em inglês para não perder o conteúdo.

    It’s a good introduction to data engineering. But as the course title it is just an introduction. You will need several follow up courses to get a hands on experience on the topic.

    I think more hands on experience is required. And the course was pretty short. But the fact that they repeated things several times was very helpful to stick into mind.

    The course is quite interesting and full of practitioners insights.

    In my opinion tests and peer assignments are quite easy, perhaps is this part that can be improved.

    It is a great introductory course. The cuality of the content is at the top. Nevertheless, I'd like to see more exercises or in-depth detail about data fundamentals

    Good for a first approach to the topic. They have to allow to download the slides used in the teaching, otherwise it is very difficult to revise the topics taught.

    The course is a good overview of what Data Engineering entails. I took a star off for the atrocious Peer reviewing requirements though. That should be removed.

    If you know nothing about data engineering, this will provide all the basic things to know but dont expect any specialization it is just an overview

    Enjoyed it. I just wish the text was easier to read under the video (i.e. paragraphed and bullet pointed instead of clumped together)

    This course is great for beginners. Labs are too basic for people who already have a good foundation of sql programming.
