Description:
Technological advancements have not only driven the digitisation of society and the emergence of novel socio-political issues, but have also resulted in significant developments in algorithms, computational power, and increasingly large datasets.
This practical-based face to face session will be delivered over two days and will provide you with both the technical programming skills and understanding of data science techniques that you will need to research pre-existing and novel social-political and economic issues and the kind of transferable skills that are currently in demand in the job market. Specifically, it will introduce you to the Python programming language, assuming zero prior-experience, and give you the skills necessary to use it for data analysis.
This training can be standalone or taken in conjunction with Web-scraping with Python and Introduction to text data with Python on 24th and 25th April 2024 Web-scraping with Python and Introduction to text data with Python (ncrm.ac.uk)
