Yes you can work as a data scientist after pursuing a course in Bioinformatics. Besides the core skills used by a data scientist, one thing to adapt to is the domain-specific terminology, concepts and certain processes exclusive to biological data.

The catch is - you'll still be dealing with data. You'll be studying the data and exemplifying findings just as you would in any other field. Biological data might seem comparatively sensitive and complex.

The subject of Bioinformatics is now recognised as a young one in Science, and job opportunities there are expanding quickly. Holders of the degree can find employment in the Biotechnology, Pharmaceutical, hospital, and research institute industries. Candidates have opportunities in all fields utilising Molecular biology and Information Technology. Medical Science is becoming more and more important. It is constantly expanding and has risen to become one of the highest-paying industries. 

Candidates can work in manufacturing facilities for Biomedical products, scientific research institutes, and Biotechnology corporations to enlist students with backgrounds in Bioinformatics for future research, as well as teach in both public and private colleges.

In India, a Bioinformatician's starting pay ranges from INR 2 to INR 2.5 lakhs. With 1-2 years of expertise, candidates can earn a salary package of INR 3 to INR 4 Lacs annually. Salary grows with knowledge and experience.

Yes, Parul University Vadodara is considered to be on a moderately expensive side for most courses. While the lowest fee for a degree course stands at INR 32,000 (for MLib.Sc), the highest fee is INR 30.4 lakh (for BAMS) indicating a big difference in the fee range. Being a private university, the fee for various courses can be a little high. But students can apply for scholarships/ financial assistance which could reduce the fee to an extent, making courses somewhat affordable.  Further, students get global exposure, experience top-class infra & curriculum. The overall highest package was INR 60 LPA. Based on these parameters, the fees seems justifiable. 

The are many courses offered by Saurashtra University, Rajkot and some of them are Post Basic Bachelor of Science, Master of Philosophy, Post Graduate Diploma, Bachelor of Computer Applications. I like a management course. The course was excellent for students interested in Managment. 

Some of the leading corporate giants that participated in Institute of Advanced Research placements over the past few years are listed below:

Institute of Advanced Research Placements: Top Companies
