We are unable to comment about the specific details of diplomas from other providers. We would encourage you to list the things you are looking for in a diplomas and then compare our diploma with other providers’ diplomas. We have listed some of the parameters our learners have found relevant:

After you complete your Postgraduate Diploma in Applied Data Science, you can take any one of the following courses:
Applied Machine Learning: This course teaches you the essential statistical tools and methods and computer algorithms that can help you create models that can analyze vast amount of data to predict outcomes that can be immensely useful for your personal and business ventures alike. By working on real-life application projects, you also acquire the knowledge of how different algorithms are used in different kinds of industry scenarios.
Applied Artificial Intelligence: This course teaches you the essentials of creating intelligent systems. Starting with the foundation of AI, this course teaches you the tools and techniques that make a system intelligent — search techniques, machine learning algorithms to group data points or split datasets to find insights, finding fast and optimal solutions to highly complex problems bound by real-world constraints, and deciding the best logical course of action to achieve its goal.

The concepts and models taught in the diploma covers both B2C and B2B business models. The application projects such as housing price prediction, human activity recognition, and credit card fraud detection are some of the B2B business models. We urge you to participate in the discussions, contextualize the topic under discussion, and ask pointed questions to understand why and how a tool or an algorithm will apply in a B2B context.

Yes, all the concepts are relevant to businesses of all sizes. We use examples of large companies since these are easy for everyone to relate to. However, the frameworks and concepts are applicable to smaller businesses, too. Keep in mind that large companies were also small companies once, who grew owing to their successful strategies.
We urge you to participate in the discussions, contextualize the topic under discussion, and ask more pointed questions to understand why and how a framework or strategy will apply in a smaller company.

Yes, the frameworks and concepts we teach are not specific to an industry or business. Each application project is just one way of using a specific algorithm or tool. As numerous examples illustrate, data science concepts find their application in various other domains as well.
We urge you to participate in the discussions, contextualize the topic under discussion, and ask more pointed questions to understand why and how a framework or strategy will apply in a specific industry.
