About Analytics Vidhya!

Why study Analytics or Data Science?

Data is omnipresent! With growing data and complexity, data analytics will become a competitive advantage for companies doing it well. Have you ever wondered how social networking sites like Facebook and Linkedin can suggest you friends in near time? How can Google use its search query data to identify areas under pandemic influence? How can a grocery store predict the pregnancy of its customer even before it was known to her family? All of these are examples of analytics at work in real time. And this is just the start. With increasing usage of mobile devices and digitization across the globe, advantages of investing in cutting edge analytics are unlimited. According to Harvard Business Review (October 2012 edition), the job of a data scientist is the sexiest job of the 21st century.

While the need for analytics experts is clear, the shortage is shocking! According to the McKinsey Global Institute (In a May 2011 report): “By 2018, the United States alone could face a shortage of 140,000 to 190,000 people with deep analytical skills as well as 1.5 million managers and analysts with the know-how to use the analysis of big data to make effective decisions.” Imagine what would be the number across the globe… Even further, imagine the impact you can create, if you can learn the art of mastering machines and using them to perform intelligent tasks.
