    Project 1: Products rating prediction for Amazon
    Domain: E-commerce
    Amazon, one of the leading US-based e-commerce companies, typically recommends products that fall in the same category to customers, based on the latter’s activity and reviews of similar products. Amazon wants to improve this recommendation engine by expanding it to predict ratings for the non-rated products and adding them to customer recommendations accordingly.

    Project 2: Improving customer experience for Comcast
    Domain: Telecom
    Description: Comcast, one of the leading US-based global telecommunication companies, wants to improve their customers’ experience by identifying problem areas that lower customer satisfaction, and act on these issues. The company is also seeking key recommendations that they can implement to deliver the best customer experience.
     
    Project 3: Attrition Analysis for IBM
    Domain: Workforce Analytics
    Description: IBM, one of the leading US-based IT companies, wants you to identify the factors that influence employee attrition. Based on the parameters identified, the company also wants to build a logistics regression model that helps predict employee churn rate.

    Project 4: Predict accurate sales for 45 Walmart stores, considering the impact of promotional markdown events. Walmart is one of the leading US-based retail stores. Determine if macroeconomic factors like CPI, unemployment rate, etc., impact sales.
    Domain: Retail
    Description: Walmart runs many promotional markdown events during the year. The markdowns typically precede prominent holidays and events like the Super Bowl, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, and of course, Christmas. The weeks where these holidays fall are weighted five times higher in valuation than ordinary weeks. The business, however, is facing a challenge due to unexpected demand, resulting in stocks running out at times, exacerbated by inaccurate demand estimation. Macroeconomic factors like CPI, Unemployment Index, etc. also play an important role in predicting demand, but the company hasn’t yet been able to leverage these factors. Part of this project requires creating a model to highlight the effects of the markdowns on holiday weeks.

    Project 5: Learn how the top healthcare industry leaders make use of Data Science to improve their business.
    Domain: HealthCare
    Description: Predictive analytics can be used in many different aspects of healthcare, such as mediating hospital readmissions. Regardless of the industry, predictors are most useful when they can be turned into action. In other words, historical and real-time data alone are worthless without the company making a move. More importantly, in order to judge the value and efficiency of forecasting a trend and ultimately altering behavior, both the predictor and the intervention must be incorporated back into the same workflow and system where the trend originally began.

    Project 6: Grasp how Insurance leaders like AIG, AXA, Berkshire Hathaway, etc., use Data Science by working on an insurance-based real-life project in this data science course in Oslo.
    Domain: Insurance
    Description: According to the 2013 Insurance Predictive Modeling Survey, predictive analytics has increased greatly in the insurance industry, especially for the biggest companies. Although the survey showed an increase in predictive modeling across the industry, every company that writes over $1 billion in personal insurance employs predictive modeling, compared to just 69% of the companies who deal with less than that premium amount.

    Project 7: See how large banks like Bank of America, Citigroup, ICICI, HDFC, etc. use Data Science to stay ahead of the competition. 
    Domain: Banking
    Description: A Portuguese banking institution conducted a marketing campaign to give potential customers incentive to invest in a bank term deposit. The bank’s marketing campaigns were conducted via phone calls. However, sometimes the same customer was contacted more than once. Your job is to analyze all the data collected from this marketing campaign.

    Project 8: Learn how stock markets like NASDAQ, NSE, and BSE leverage Data Science and Analytics to derive consumable data from complex datasets.
    Domain: Stock Market
    Description: You must import data using Yahoo data reader from the following companies: Apple, Amazon, Microsoft, Google, and Yahoo. You must then perform fundamental analytics functions, such as performing daily return analysis, plotting stock trade by volume, plotting closing price, and using pair plot to show the stocks’ correlations.

    Project 9: Understand how Data Science is used in the field of engineering by engaging in this case study of MovieLens Dataset Analysis.
    Domain: Engineering
    Description: The GroupLens Research Project is a research group in University of Minnesota’s Department of Computer Science and Engineering. The group’s researchers are involved in several research projects related to the fields of collaborative filtering, information filtering, and recommender systems.
