GITAM School of Technology, Visakhapatnam

Hi Harikrishna, GITAM will be a better choice because Lateral entry is not possible at GITAM on the basis of Diploma degree. There are limited seats for lateral entry so your percentage in the Diploma must be good. Hope this helps you!
Thanks.

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. You can also qualify for Assitant Professor or researcher in many institutes.

First of all, you have to apply for counselling anyways, in the recent condition. You can still go for it, and you should apply. There are seats available till now. Hurry up and apply. Wish you all the luck ahead.

Yes, Gitam College comes under UGC.

Gitam University would be a better choice, as the faculty is highly experienced and is very regular. The classes are very enjoyable.

I do not know much about ICFAI, but Gitam University is a well know university. The management department is a very accomplished once. The placements given are also lucrative. Please go to the official website for more information.
