Best moments of your life.

Placements: We have to perform well in placements and they can't help you to get job. Placement are really good. In any time we have any queries. They are ready to help you. I loved the placements over there. I really get lots of support form faculty and overall I liked that process it's so simple.

Infrastructure: Overall good infrastructure. I'm day scholar so I don't no about hostels but what I listened is some positive reviews. They maintain very hygienic and good food and strong Wi-Fi and rooms also very good. They clean every other day. Nice canteens for every hostel separately.

Faculty: They can't provide you any material or important questions. We have read text books and learn the concepts and I liked that studying type of model which so easy and evaluating marks are also good and conceptual writings are been evaluate but when we write stuff like that you are gonna fail.

Other: There is atleast one event in the college per day. So I leave it to expectations.

I'm B.Sc statistics student and want to pursue M.Sc in data science at GITAM. Can you please give suggestions?

Answered 7 years ago

Your Stream and college both are good in my opinion. If that is what you want to pursue, then go for it undoubtedly. M.Sc in Data Science is a good course, but might not be able to get you a job quickly. Although, if you are not aiming for job, but rather the Ph.D then this would be very beneficial.
