Course description
This short course provides delegates with a working appreciation of advanced data analytics, combined with conventional analysis methods to make the best use of available analytical tools when seeking insight from engineering data.
Many engineering organisations have created various initiatives to embrace the latest digital capabilities and equip their workforce with related tools and techniques. A key growth area of interest is the application of modern data-analytic techniques to aid understanding of how products behave in service and where potential vulnerabilities may exist in product usage with the aim of improving design and functionality. Delegates will therefore gain a working practical appreciation of techniques related to data-science and AI that will help unlock valued insight from business and engineering data.
Suitability - Who should attend?
The course will benefit engineers from a range of industries and disciplines (e.g. manufacturing, design, operation support, etc.) who want to make better data-driven decisions.
