Project 1: Analyzing the Naming Pattern Using Python
Industry: General
Problem Statement: How to analyze the trends and the most popular baby names
Topics: In this Python project, you will work with the United States Social Security Administration (SSA) which has made data on the frequency of baby names from 1880 to 2016 available. The project requires analyzing the data considering different methods. You will visualize the most frequent names, determine the naming trends and come up with the most popular names for a certain year.
Highlights :
- Analyzing data using Pandas Library
- Deploying Data Frame Manipulation
- Bar and box plots with Matplotlib

Project 3: Predicting Customer Churn in Telecom Company
Industry – Telecommunications
Problem Statement – How to increase the profitability of a telecom major by reducing the churn rate
Topics: In this project, you will work with the telecom company’s customer dataset. This dataset includes subscribing to telephone customer details. Each of the columns has data on phone numbers, call minutes during various times of the day, the charges incurred, lifetime account duration, and whether the customer has churned some services by unsubscribing them. The goal is to predict whether a customer will eventually churn or not.
