M.Sc. in Data Science - Batch of 2023

5Placements5Infrastructure5Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

Overall, the best College for M.Sc. In the Data Science Course.

Placements: The minimum will be 3 LPA, and the maximum for the M.Sc. The Data Science course will be 27 LPA. The median package is around 16 LPA. Top recruiters were here, including Mu Sigma, Genpact, Databricks, etc. About 66% got selected for internships. Both foreign and domestic internships were available to the students. The top jobs are Data Engineer, Business Intelligence Analyst, and so on.

Infrastructure: Everything here was fantastic. The labs were well furnished. The arrangement of the classrooms was outstanding, and the departmental library was satisfactory. Wi-Fi services were accessible all across the campus. Hotel rooms may not be better, but the chaos was the same. Hospital and sports avenues are outstanding.

Faculty: The quality of teaching was extraordinary. Learners engage in a research-oriented atmosphere. The coursework was structured to allow students to seek a Ph.D. later on. In comparison to other universities, semester examinations were challenging and occurred often. However, the course is well executed, and the instruction is of high quality.

This is the best college for engineering students. Students get placed well and have many facilities

Placements: Around 40-50% of students got placed in our course. The highest salary package offered is around 4 LPA - 5 LPA. The lowest salary package offered is around 1 LPA - 2 LPA. Some recruiting companies are Nestle and Pepsico. Around 80% of students secured internships in many food and dairy industries. Roles offered are quality assurance and quality checking.

Infrastructure: Facilities and infrastructure are good. There is no Wi-Fi facility around the campus. Labs are good. The library is better with all the needed books. Hostel food is good. All sports and games are conducted every week. Sports and tournaments are held on campus every month.

Faculty: Teachers are professional and qualified. The teaching quality is good and well-trained. The food technology course curriculum is relevant. It can make students industry-ready. It largely depends on how well the curriculum is designed and updated to reflect the current industry and the practical skills. Semester exams are much more difficult to vary in different subjects. The pass percentage is 35%.

Other: This course is better I feel than another course which teaches about food. The best thing about this course is that we can learn about the quality of food and beverages. The improvement would be more lab sessions to be conducted. All fests, events, campus crowds, and activities are conducted during our course.

Review of GITAM School of Science, Visakhapatnam.

Placements: The best placements are offered here. Somehow, few students join my course. Because it is a food system course. The highest package is 20 LPA, and the lowest package is 3 LPA. Many companies offer job opportunities.

Infrastructure: GITAM University has the best infrastructure. We have a well-equipped and well-stocked library with central AC and Wi-Fi. We have AC classrooms. We have labs for all subjects. Our hostel is very nice and washrooms are very clean. We also have medical facilities.

Faculty: Here, teachers are well-qualified and knowledgeable. They are teaching very nicely and are close to students. They are very friendly to students while teaching. We have a monthly exam for students. Our dean conducts exams very strictly. We have compulsory attendance for writing exams.

The college offers excellent facilities including top-notch hostels and canteens.

Placements: Almost 80% of students are placed in the course. I did have to know about this clearly and get to know. Since I haven't gathered enough information about this. Top recruiting companies are for our food technology courses, and the percentage of students who can get internships from our courses are almost everyone.

Infrastructure: The facilities and infrastructure in our department are very modest. It does have Wi-Fi, lifts, excellent labs, spacious classrooms with projectors to learn classes by faculty, and even we have the best library. The quality of the facilities in the hostel, the quality of the food in the mess, and the canteen sports and games is the best I have ever seen. This is the most unique and the best experience I have ever had.

Faculty: The teachers were very helpful to us. Even at teaching the subjects and also helping us in doing the projects. They are also highly knowledgeable, qualified, and helpful. Semester exams are a bit difficult since everything is a matter of results. So it does matter, and it is a bit difficult.

Other: I chose this course. Since I always care about what I eat, I wanted to learn more about food care, food health, etc. And that's how I chose this course to make myself better and make everyone else better by knowing about the food much better. Events, fests, campus crowds, connectivity, and extracurricular activities are all part of this whole college. Our college/university has its own uniqueness like ever. This is the best college where we can study as much as we want and enjoy as much as we want. The best one I have ever had.

I joined the college and I personally love how it's going here. Everything is perfect.

Placements: The internship here are provided by the college itself. Or else you can choose it according to your choice. Package starting here 5-6 LPA for our batch. And many more to go. The faculty members are so cooperative and help you in every field. So I must say whoever wants to join this college they can without thinking. Yes, the course is a little bit difficult, so you have to study a lot for it. Be prepared, but the outcome will be best, I agree.

Infrastructure: The class labs and everything are perfect here. The library is so vast and big here. There are separate rooms for students to read, group discussion, and self-study, and so many books for every field. It's best to study here without any other thinking. Cultural activities always happen here. There are several clubs or groups here for dance, song, etc. The medical college is also inside here, so there is no worry if you are sick. Wi-Fi connections are all over the college.

Faculty: The teachers here are highly qualified with Ph.D. degrees and they have vast knowledge and experience in the courses. The exams here are a little bit difficult to crack, but the faculty members help in that case. They teach us what is needed and give so much of their time to teach us.
