In this final course you will complete a Capstone Project using data analysis to recommend a method for improving profits for your company, Watershed Property Management, Inc. Watershed is responsible for managing thousands of residential rental properties throughout the United States. Your job is to persuade Watershed’s management team to pursue a new strategy for managing its properties that will increase their profits. To do this, you will: (1) Elicit information about important variables relevant to your analysis; (2) Draw upon your new MySQL database skills to extract relevant data from a real estate database; (3) Implement data analysis in Excel to identify the best opportunities for Watershed to increase revenue and maximize profits, while managing any new risks; (4) Create a Tableau dashboard to show Watershed executives the results of a sensitivity analysis; and (5) Articulate a significant and innovative business process change for Watershed based on your data analysis, that you will recommend to company executives.

This course will change you life. I will want to quit, but don't. It is not easy, but it is not supposed to be. Thanks to Duke University, Course and the Professors and all involved.
Simply awesome, it did not only helped me to develop the required skills, but gave me the security to try greater. Astounding method, totally recommended specialization
It would have been nice to use more complex data analysis, as used in the second course of this specialization, in order to build the final model.
A great way to put the learning into practice. Strongly encourage anyone who started this specialisation course to complete the Capstone project.
This course would help you consolidate all the learnings from the previous modules and apply them in a realistic situation.
Great capstone course that successfully integrates all the concepts learning in the previous courses.
Great course! Would definitely recommend those who are interested in data analytics!
You will be proud of yourself when you complete this Capstone !
Great experience working on the Capstone Project.!!!!
Fantastic course, very well prepared. Thank you !!!
