Review of M.Sc. Data Science at the University of Kerala.
Placements: The college gives placement, but one cannot expect that they will definitely be placed. Only a few students, about 50% of students, are placed off campus, and a few on campus. Oyspn, Capgemini, and Cognizant are some notable companies. College gives direction to get an internship, and some courses can be completed in 1-2 weeks. Ultimately, internships are useless, especially WFH internships. The package depends on individual capabilities, the lowest is 3.8 LPA, and the highest goes up to 12.5 LPA. My friend got the highest role offered, which is associate data scientist.
Infrastructure: There are some issues with the infrastructure that need to be fixed. The library is big and has ample of books, you can take books home. Securities behaviour is very rude, it feels like we stole something from them, and they treat us like prisoner. Wi-Fi and labs are in good condition. Canteen food is the worst thing. I feel a stomach issue after eating canteen food. The hostel conditions are also not good, it is not well-maintained, but the food is decent. The college does not prioritize sports, it only organizes a sports fest once a year.
Faculty: Teachers are the best thing about this college, and they are very supportive. Principal Sir is also very polite and humble. College management is not good, they are stuck in organizing small functions, and they are not that efficient. Data Science is a demanding course, its curriculum includes Data Structures, Tableau, Power BI, Advanced Excel, MySQL, and MongoDB-like software. The exams are moderately difficult, and passing is very easy if you study with a strategy.
