Our Alumni Feedback

The instructors we have are AMAZING!!! They are super knowledgeable and also very passionate about data science. TAs are the most hard working group of people I know! They really try their best to help you. Students are impressive as well. Most of them either have a phd degree or have significant/successful work experiences prior to joining the bootcamp. We did projects during the bootcamp which you can totally show off during your job interviews!

Wendy Yu

The productivity of all the students including myself is one of the most remarkable things about my NYC Data Science Academy experience. The environment of top tier professors, hands on teaching assistants and extensive resources to learn from is inevitably going to prepare you well for a data science career if you are willing to put in the effort. You learn a wide array of tools and gain very good insight about the field itself. They're very proactive when it comes to helping you with your job search.
