Syllabus

WEEK 1
Introducción a las Bases de Datos y SQL Básico
En la Semana 1 te vamos a presentar las bases de datos. Crearás una instancia de una base de datos en la nube. Aprenderás algunas sentencias SQL básicas. También escribirás y practicarás SQL básico de forma práctica en una base de datos operativa.

WEEK 2
SQL Avanzado
Al final de este módulo, habrás aprendido lo siguiente: (1) a utilizar patrones de cadenas y rangos para buscar datos, y a ordenar y agrupar los datos en conjuntos de resultados. (2) a trabajar con múltiples tablas en una base de datos relacional utilizando operaciones join ("unión").

WEEK 3
Acceso a Bases de Datos utilizando Python
Después de completar las lecciones de esta semana, aprenderá a explicar los conceptos básicos relacionados con el uso de Python para conectarse a bases de datos y luego crear tablas, cargar datos, consultar datos con SQL y analizar datos con Python.

WEEK 4
Práctica y Trabajo final
Como tarea práctica de ciencia de datos, trabajará con múltiples conjuntos de datos del mundo real para la ciudad de Chicago. Se le harán preguntas que lo ayudarán a comprender los datos tal como lo haría un científico de datos. Se le evaluará tanto la exactitud de sus consultas SQL como los resultados.
