Currently in India, Data Science has enormous career scope and job prospects. As far as your first Questions is concerned, CSE as a whole, has some deep influence of Mathematics, however Data Science will have more of Maths, Statistics, Probablity, Combinatorics based Theories to Study from. However, though Cyber Security job prospects arent that strong, with the boom of Cryptography, Crypto Currency, Cloud Computing and Cyber Vigilance, this sector will soon speed up, and secondly its a great area of Research.

Hello,

Actually there is no comparison possible in between a honours degree and engineering. Yes, it is only possible if the subject is same. But here you want to compare in various different types. See doing honours or engineering it should be based on your personal choice. Both have bright career if you work hard and smart. In case mathematics, Physics and chemistry honours you have various career opportunities like teaching, government jobs, research works etc. In case of Engineering you also can make your career at it's best. Cse , Aerospace engineering both are best at it's own field. Now it is upto you that which is your comfort zone.  Go through your choices.

Hope for the best.

Thank you.

The 5 year integrated MSc program on Data Science in Amrita University is intended for the students who aspire to excel in data science.It provides a spectrum of basis to advanced mathematical methods and their applications to both conventional and IT industries that enable to tackle emerging problems.The syllabus of Integrated MSc starts with the basics in calculus, mathematical logic, probability, statistics,linear algebra,data management and analytics  to advanced topics like neural networks, artificial intelligence, machine learning,data modeling and big data.

Job opportunity in Amrita University after Integrated Msc Data Science program: Employment opportunities for students with data science degree are plenty in the job market.The need for data scientists is growing every day in all fields.Harvard calls the data scientist job as the excellent job of 21st century.They are also eligible to work as scientists and research associates in highly reputed organization such as ISRO,DRDO and CSIR.In addition, lucrative jobs are available in software industries.The prospective recruiters for the students of integrated data science are Google,Bing,ask.com, Facebook, twitter,intel,visa,HCL,Wipro,Oracle,Amazon,apple,ebay,SAP,SAS,opera solution,Infosys.More than 8000 companies hiring data scientist.

A certification in Data Science opens up multiple avenues for career transitioning and growth. One must understand that this role is not restricted to only hands-on statistical model building but also to engaging in consultative work to improvise the data strategy and overall use of data for problem-solving. Let us explore a few career options and understand the pros and cons that one might face in the long run.

Data Scientist : Leverages statistical tools and algorithms to manage data and encourage data driven decision making.

Big Data Manager: Manages end to end data pipeline and data strategy.

Data consultant : Advises clients on the ways to solve complex problems using a data driven approach.

Data Analyst : Acts as a bridge between the technical and the functional teams to bring a solution or product to life.

ML Lead: Leverages both Machine Learning and Data science to manage and solve use cases with a data driven approach.

AI consultant: Understands and works on integrating Data based problem solving with other AI based solutions. This is usually done by building an AI platform to integrate multiple solutions.

Opportunities in the data science domain increases with your level of expertise and exposure. The industry is witnessing continued demand from professionals who can build an organization-wide AI platform that can set up the data platform and leverage it to solve multiple use cases. Professionals can take advantage of multiple certifications and programs available to learn how data science is used to problem solving across domains and industries.

The forest department has a separate recruitment drive and examination to target certain posts. They are also recruited through the popular UPSC examination in India. Unless your skill set matches well with a regional opening the chances for getting into the forest department are slim just based on a degree in data science .

Let us try to highlight the roles and responsibilities of an individual working in the forest department. The Indian Forest Service officers operate under the Ministry of Environment and Forests (MoEF). Their duties include:

·         Protecting and preserving the rich heritage of forest reserves. This includes preventing illegal deforestation, poaching of animals, and other non-legal activities.

·         To implement National forest policy framed by MoEF. They must work under this framework to protect and preserve natural reserves.

·         Devise plans for legal commercial exploitation like timber, rubber, and other natural resources.

In a nutshell, IFoS officers are expected to protect the forest as well as wildlife. Apart from that, they are also expected to curb unlawful wood cutting. Upon selection to IFS, the officers will be given training for 1 year. After that, they will be posted as Assistant conservators of forests in a state.

The forest department also leverages data as an essential tool for problem-solving, but such specialized skill requirements are restricted to a rare few posts. It is recommended that one must develop other complementary skills as well before they intend to join the forest department.

Dear aspirant,

As you are getting information technology and data science in Manipal institute of technology so I would recommend you to take up data science considering it as new branch in Manipal. Still in future data science has too much of scope than any other branch of computer science.

This branch can't go out of date. Because there is no saturation level of data.
