See all our free webinarsWhy you should study data analytics in Cologne
In April 2022, Cologne was named the first Capital of Inclusion and Diversity by the European Commission. The City is home to a diverse population, with nearly half of its 1.1 million inhabitants able to trace their roots back to migrants, and 200 000+ residents now hailing from over 184 countries. Cologne is a founding member of the Rainbow Cities Network, and the city’s 'Cologne’s Perspectives 2030+' Strategy is ambitious and comprehensive in its approach to diversity and inclusion across all fields.
Today, data professionals are in demand in every industry and in every type of company. And they play an important role in their success! Most companies today depend on data to function. But that's not all: pretty much every business that has computers and runs programs needs data professionals. Whether you want to create new innovations at a Cologne tech startup, help small and medium-sized businesses meet the challenges of the digital world or climb the corporate ladder in a DAX corporation. The options are as colorful as the carnival costumes. Whether you want to become a Data Analyst, Business Analyst or Data Consultant, you'll find something that fits your vision perfectly.
Cologne is one of Germany's economic hotspots. Many companies from different industries have their headquarters in this beautiful city located in the heart of North Rhine-Westphalia. This means that depending on what interests you most about data, you have a wide range of data jobs to choose from.
With a large variety of initiatives, Cologne's startup ecosystem stands out from other cities in Western Europe. Cologne offers a number of funding opportunities for entrepreneurs and startups. Overall Cologne ranks sixth place for startups in Germany and there is an increased attraction for entrepreneurs to set up their startups in industries such as Education, Social & Leisure, Software, and Data.
F.A.Q.
You don't need any technical background to join our data analytics bootcamp. We expect 3 things from our students: be (extremely) motivated, be curious, be social. If this sounds like you, then we'll be more than happy to have you on board if you pass all the selection process.
Once the bootcamps ends, you will benefit from our career services.
Our local team will help you prepare for tech interviews, meet the best local recruiters and connect with relevant alumni. You will also have access to a complete guide to kick-start your tech career after the course: boost your portfolio, prepare for technical interviews, leverage on our 10,000 alumni community, but also to lots of useful Slack channels to find jobs or freelance opportunities.
Our local team will introduce you to the right people depending on your goal and you will meet with inspiring alumni who will come back to share their post-bootcamp experiences, like how they found a job, started their own company or freelancing career.
These are some career services we will provide:
- Networking events, job fairs, career workshops and office hours with alumni or tech recruiters

Some cities offer specific funding options with local financial partners, like deferred tuition plans, student loans with interesting conditions or Income Share Agreements (ISA). Again, you will find more details about these options on the page of each city on Le Wagon’s website. Also feel free to reach out to the local admission manager to have more details about their local funding options.

You don't need any technical background to join our web development bootcamp. We expect 3 things from our students: be (extremely) motivated, be curious, be social. If this sounds like you, then we'll be more than happy to have you on board if you pass all the selection process.
Data Science course
The Data Science course requires some basic knowledge of programming and mathematics.
- How much programming do I need to know? Well, you must be comfortable with data types & variables, conditions, loops, functions and data structures like arrays and dictionaries (also called hashes in some programming languages). If you know those topics in other languages than Python (like Ruby, JavaScript, C++, etc.), you have the right programming prerequisites!
- How much mathematics do I need to know? In order to join our Data Science course, you also need a minimum level in Mathematics and to be familiar with concepts covered in high school's scientific section. We need you to be comfortable with functions, their derivatives & systems of linear equations. To get up to speed, some additional preparation work will be given to you before the bootcamp start to get a refresh of all these concepts as well as more advanced knowledge on linear algebra and statistics.
In most cities, the bootcamp is taught in English.
In French cities, the program is in French. You will have a 1h30 lecture in the morning in French, and a 1h30 live-code in the evening in French as well. So, if you don't understand French correctly, you won't be able to attend the bootcamp in France.
In some other cities (São Paulo, Shanghai, Chengdu, Tokyo) specific sessions are organised in other languages (Brazilian Portuguese, Chinese, Japanese). You can check the language of the next batch on the "Apply" page.
Extra info: all the challenges' instructions and written documentation are in English, so all students must have a good level and understanding or written English, even in cities where lectures are given in another language.
To apply, simply complete the application form on our website by selecting:
- The course (Web Development, Data Science)
- The format (9-week full-time, 24-week part-time)
- The city you're interested in
- An introduction of why you want to join us and information about your personal project (if you have one!)
This is a quick process which only takes a few minutes. We will then contact you to schedule an interview (either in-person or online) to understand your motivations in more detail and answer any questions you have about our bootcamps.
