Program runs five postgraduate students on a six-week data analytics sprint with industry projects (gas distribution, price optimisation, law firm profitability, Chatham House nuclear proliferation network analysis). Examples use Python and MATLAB and a live word‑cloud quiz where emoji tube‑station answers diverge wildly. Demonstrates concrete lessons: an imbalanced training set (many cats few dogs) skews predictions, a built quiz works but yields surprising answers, and a short video shows an expected outcome failing.
