                      | Objectives | Data modeling is essential to assure high data quality, which is an important prerequisite for industry, data-driven decisions, or artificial intelligence. It is an important skill for data scientists or others involved with data analysis.
This course aims at a theoretical and practical basis on data modeling. The process of data modeling is demonstrated by means of real-world case studies and examples. Practical experience is gained by using the methods and applying them in exercises and examples. |
