FAQs
It’s a full time two year program.
The program is suitable for working recent undergraduates wishing to make their career in data science domains, undergraduates or graduates having some years of experience in IT/software domain or working executives looking to enhance their skills or make a career shift in data science domain.
The prerequisites for the course is at least a bachelor’s degree in STEM discipline or bachelor’s degree in some other field with some years of experience in either a functional, IT or related field. The students should have some basic conceptual understanding of types of data, data structures, some analytical knowledge, preferably some programming language or tool.
Students will gain hands on experience on the domains of data science which will include knowledge of programming languages, analytical and visualization tools and the core statistical and applied concepts which forms part of the data science domain. These would include programming languages like Python and Java, Big data ecosystem, visualization tools (both open source as well as commercial) and applications like Machine Learning, Natural Language Processing, Artificial Intelligence, etc.
The growing demand and consumption of data have resulted in the surge for professionals who could analyze and work with different kinds of data. There exists a massive demand-supply gap in the domain of data science and big data. A research study conducted by Accenture found that more than 90% of clients planned to hire workers with DSA expertise, but 40% were confronted by a lack of available talent. Barring a few most position in Data Science domain demands a masters degree, thus this Masters Course is apt for professionals and students looking to make a career in data science domain.
