Welcome to Introduction to Optimization Through the Lens of Data Science!

This free 4-part course was developed to help teach data scientists how to add optimization to their toolbox and when to use it in their advanced problem-solving. We will cover a comprehensive introduction to optimization, when optimization is the best tool to solve a problem, and how to translate real-life problems into optimization.

We will introduce you to world-class tools to help you problem solve, and provide everything from basic hands-on exercises to more advanced full real-world use cases to reinforce all new concepts of prescriptive analytics as you learn them. We look forward to having you learn optimization (and gurobipy) with expertise from Dr. Joel Sokol and the team of Ph.D. experts from Gurobi Optimization, who helped him develop this comprehensive introduction to mathematical optimization.

In Part 4, we put everything from parts 1 through 3 together: you will solve real-world examples, working from problem statements to mathematical formulations, to code, and to solutions.

Hands-on Exercises:

Please check the resource section of many of the lectures to find self-assessments in the form of exercise files and solution files. You will also notice we have data and code files available to help you work your way through these practice exercises.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do I have access to the course materials?

You can view and review the lecture materials indefinitely, like an on-demand channel.

Can I take my courses with me wherever I go?

Definitely! If you have an internet connection, courses on Udemy are available on any device at any time. If you don’t have an internet connection, some instructors also let their students download course lectures. That’s up to the instructor though, so make sure you get on their good side!
