Further information

Qualifications:
Before taking an "Introduction to Data Engineering with Python" course, students typically need a foundational understanding of several key areas. Here are the prerequisite courses and topics:

1. Python Programming: Proficiency in basic Python syntax and programming constructs, understanding of Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) concepts.

2. Data Management: Experience with data manipulation libraries such as Pandas for handling datasets. Data manipulation involves transforming data, cleaning it, organizing it, and preparing it for analysis.

3. Basic Linear Algebra: Understanding of vectors, matrices, and basic operations on them.

4. Statistics and Probability: Knowledge of descriptive statistics (mean, median, mode, variance, etc.), and familiarity with probability distributions.
