Postgraduate Certificate in Data Description and Exploration

Data description and exploration is the process of analyzing and summarizing data to identify patterns, relationships, and other important aspects. It is a fundamental part of statistics and is an essential tool for informed decision making in any field involving data analysis. At TECH Global University we have this specialized program designed to provide knowledge and skills in frequency tables, scatterplot visualization and correlation in the search for patterns or relationships between variables.

Data description and exploration is important because it helps data analysts gain a complete understanding of the data they are analyzing. It provides essential information in identifying problems such as missing data, errors, and anomalous maxima and minima, which can affect data analysis. Data description and exploration is also a critical phase in preparing the data for further analysis, which ensures that the data analysis is as accurate as possible. In our university course you will address the basics in understanding data, detecting patterns and trends, and improving data quality by identifying problems. It is an excellent choice for those who wish to acquire specialized skills and develop a successful career in this field.
