My learners are equipped to tackle projects in machine learning and statistical learning, having gained proficiency in Python and R. They have engaged with several hands-on courses covering machine learning, statistical data analysis, SQL and database management, Tableau dashboard creation, data engineering, and big data. I am seeking internship projects that will help them apply their skills as part of their data science master’s program. Please note that learners will register for their internship between May and August 2025. If you wish to start working with them during this period, it would be ideal.

We had the pleasure of working with a dedicated group of students on our U.S. go-to-market strategy, and we were genuinely impressed by their professionalism, strategic thinking, and collaborative approach. They conducted thorough market research, brought fresh perspectives to the table, and offered actionable insights that aligned well with our vision. Their ability to break down complex problems, adapt to feedback, and deliver high-quality work within tight timelines was commendable. Each student contributed meaningfully to the project, and their efforts have laid a solid foundation for our U.S. expansion plans. We’re grateful for their hard work and would confidently recommend them for any strategy or business development initiatives.
