MOOCs

MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses) enable you to participate in tertiary level courses in your own time and from your own location. MOOCs are a great way to gain skills in areas related to your degree and you can receive recognition for completing class activities and assessment. MOOCs are generally run during during a specific time-frame so some of the course listed below may not be immediately available for you to participate in.

Communicating Data Science Results (Coursera)
Created by 4-H Youth Development and the University of Washington. Delivered by Coursera.
Visualization is the field of research in computer science that studies effective communication of quantitative results by linking perception, cognition, and algorithms to exploit the enormous bandwidth of the human visual cortex. Learn to recognize, design, and use effective visualizations.
Data Science Specialization: Exploratory Data Analysis Course 4 (Coursera)
Created by John Hopkins University. Delivered by Coursera.
This course covers techniques typically applied before formal modeling commences and can help inform the development of more complex statistical models. Includes the plotting systems in R as well as some of the basic principles of constructing data graphics. We will also cover some of the common multivariate statistical techniques used to visualize high-dimensional data.
Data Visualization (Coursera)
Created by University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. Designed by Coursera.
Learn the general concepts of data mining along with basic methodologies and applications. Also skills and content to practice and engage in scalable pattern discovery methods on massive transactional data, discuss pattern evaluation methods, and study methods for mining diverse kinds of patterns, sequential patterns and sub-graph patterns.
Graph Analytics for Big Data (Coursera)
Created by University of California, San Diego. Delivered by: Coursera.
This course gives you a broad overview of graph analytics and teaches new ways to model, store, retrieve and analyze graph-structured data. On completion you will be able to model a problem into a graph database and perform analytical tasks over the graph in a scalable manner.
Statistical Thinking for Data Science and Analytics (edX)
Created by Columbia University. Delivered by EdX.
Teaches how to exercise statistical thinking in designing data collection, derive insights from visualizing data, obtaining supporting evidence for data-based decisions and construct models for predicting future trends from data.
