The Business Statistics and Analysis Capstone is an opportunity to apply various skills developed across the four courses in the specialization to a real life data. The Capstone, in collaboration with an industry partner uses publicly available ‘Housing Data’ to pose various questions typically a client would pose to a data analyst.
Your job is to do the relevant statistical analysis and report your findings in response to the questions in a way that anyone can understand.
Please remember that this is a Capstone, and has a degree of difficulty/ambiguity higher than the previous four courses. The aim being to mimic a real life application as close as possible.

This course strikes a great balance between giving guidance & giving freedom to the learner to self discover the solutions. The case study is also interesting!
