Generative AI Data Analyst

Overview

Vanderbilt's Generative AI Data Analyst specialization sits at the intersection of two skill sets — traditional data analysis (SQL, exploratory data analysis, data visualization) and generative AI tools like ChatGPT used to speed up and extend that analysis through prompt and context engineering.

Who it's for

A beginner-level program for learners who want to become data analysts using AI-assisted workflows from day one, rather than learning classic analysis first and AI tools later. Nearly 15,000 learners have enrolled so far.

Key skills

• SQL, databases, and exploratory data analysis
• Data validation, capture, and visualization
• Generative AI prompt and context engineering for analysis

Worth a look if you want data analysis fundamentals taught alongside modern generative AI tooling, rather than as separate tracks.
