This is a path for those of you who want to complete the Data Science undergraduate curriculum on your own time, for free, with courses from the best universities in the World.
In our curriculum, we give preference to MOOC (Massive Open Online Course) style courses because these courses were created with our style of learning in mind.
OSSU Data Science uses the report Curriculum Guidelines for Undergraduate Programs in Data Science as our guide for course recommendation.
Students who already know basic programming in any language can skip this first course
Introduction to Computer Science and Programming Using Python
Introduction to Computational Thinking and Data Science
The Algorithms courses are taught in Java. If students need to learn Java, they should take this course first
Database Management Essentials

Relational Database Support for Data Warehouses
Business Intelligence Concepts, Tools, and Applications
Design and Build a Data Warehouse for Business Intelligence Implementation
MongoDB for Developers Learning Path

Some courses can be taken in parallel, while others must be taken sequentially. All of the courses within a topic should be taken in the order listed in the curriculum. The graph below demonstrates how topics should be ordered.
Python and R are heavily used in Data Science community and our courses teach you both. Remember, the important thing for each course is to internalize the core concepts and to be able to use them with whatever tool (programming language) that you wish.
You must share only files that you are allowed. Do NOT disrespect the code of conduct that you sign in the beginning of your courses.
You can open an issue and give us your suggestions as to how we can improve this guide, or what we can do to improve the learning experience.
