MS in Data Science - Batch of 2026

College is friendly but check the coursework and faculty.

Tips: Students should check the coursework and faculty. Email them and find out their interest. Most of the college websites are not updated so after coming here I got to know there is no huge faculty and courses for Masters in Data Science at Mass Dartmouth. On-campus is safe but you won't get on-campus jobs because of overcrowding. The acceptance rate is increasing so suggest choosing another college.

There are so many crime cases with this university

Tips: Students coming here should know about the college background which is not that great. The faculty and the courses which they provide. Most of the courses which they display on the website are not provided here. There are no scholarships provided. I will not recommend to join this university as it is not worth the money. Campus placements are not good.

Likes (Public transportation): Public transportation you can take from the university stop that is a good option. Even a student id works for local transportation so no need to pay any amount. Since there is a selection going on here so local transportation is free here. Every one-hour bus will be there.

Dislikes (Value for money): Faculty is not that good. Most of the courses which they have displayed on the website are not provided here. This is a public university which should be less in amount but it is similar to a private college where tuition fees is too high and not worth the money.

You will have to adjust to survive.

Tips: College is located in a remote area, so be prepared to spend a lot of time in transportation, and consider buying a car if you want to save time. Also, even if you can cook, you will need to travel 40 miles if you want to get good Indian supplies, normal groceries from Walmart are cheap if you buy great value products.

Dislikes (Indian Food): I love to cook myself but I can only get basic grocery supplies from nearby Walmart, that too have to spend 2 hours to get them. If you want to cook or have real Indian food and snacks, travel to the Patel Brother store, which is 40 miles from college. Which can be estimated to 2 hrs travel on public transport, one way.

It's a good university with a lot of opportunities.

Tips: It's better to revise the basics before the classes commence, in case you are joining the university for Master's. The weather conditions of the localities should be kept in mind. Since Dartmouth is a village, the availability of buses should also be known.
