B.Sc. Data Science

(Bachelor of Science in Computer Science -Data Science in Collaboration with ECIT, IIT Kanpur)

In a world that is increasingly becoming a digital space, organizations deal with zettabytes and yottabytes of structured and unstructured data every day. Data science is an inter-disciplinary field that uses scientific methods, processes, algorithms and systems to extract knowledge and insights from many structural and unstructured data Data science is a multidisciplinary blend of data inference, algorithm development, and technology in order to solve analytically complex problems.

B.Sc. (CS) Data Science is a three- year undergraduate course, suitable for those who want to study Big Data Analytics. The course content is carefully chosen and distributed in six semesters in an organized way. Through a structured lesson plan, students gain knowledge about computer science & programming, statistics & operations research, mathematical skills, data mining, ethical issues around the use and processing of data, data analytics & database and information retrieval. They develop their skills through hands-on experience in language labs & R & D Labs. At the end of the course, the students are successfully able to integrate and apply statistical and computational principles to solve real-world problems with large-scale data science
