Review M.Sc. Applied Science (SRM IST).
Placements: Data science is an emerging field; it has a lot of jobs, but getting a job as a fresher, although it's off campus, is tough. Interviews are really hard, and we need very precious data. Many big companies like HCL Teach, Seaborn, IBM, Accenture, and SumoLogic are some well-known companies. The starting package at HCL is 3.75 LPA as an analyst, and the highest package is 7.8 LPA. One student was placed at Google via its off-campus data analyst drive for an internship. The college does not provide good internships on campus, but off campus, many good options are available. One important thing is that if you left college without a job, it would be tough to get a job off campus, so try to get a job on campus.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is totally park for itself; there are multiple buildings right across one another. The massive library in UB during exams is still open up to 12:00 clock, which is a bonus point, and it also has all kinds of books. The buildings are quite a bit far; sometimes going to the to the classroom from UB takes a long walk. As for timing, they are very strict and punctual with their dress code. I stay in a hostel, but it feels difficult to stay here. The worst thing is the hostel food, which is very bad. We have a sports facility, but it is not proper.
Faculty: You're going to meet rude faculty if you do not take stand; they're going to target you. there teaching is very traditional, but in today's fast-changing, competitive world, they need to be creative. Teachers are mostly masters and Ph.D.-qualified in there subjects. The course curriculum is good; we have data cleaning, data interpretation, and data visualization techniques in which Python and R programming languages are majorly used. And other software are MySQL, MongoDB, Advance Excel, PowerBI, and Tableau. Semesters have projects, and theory exams are not very difficult.
Other: Although college has a high feel and reputation, it has a lot of problems. Management needs to take a look at the ground condition.
