Causal Inference for Data Science
This course teaches you how to answer the most fundamental question in data science: Does X cause Y? We’ve designed the course to cover the essential causal inference techniques while applying them to relevant, real-world examples. By the end of this course, you will know how to identify causal inference problems, pick the right tool for the job, and understand how these tools can break. You will be well-equipped to get maximum value from observational data sets and have the foundation to expand your causal inference toolkit with cutting-edge methods.
