Hello Aspirant,

Data analytics is more specific and concentrated than data science. Data Analytics requires acting upon data which is already available . . On the other hand, data science centres on discovering new questions that one might not have realized needed answering. Unlike data analytics which involves checking a hypothesis, data science tries to build connections and shapes the questions to answer them for the future.

Concerning skills, Data Analytics requires knowledge of intermediate statistics and excellent problem-solving skills along with excellence in Excel and SQL database to slice and dice data, experience working with BI tools like Power BI for reporting and knowledge of stats tools like Python, R or SAS. An engineering background is not necessarily needed to become a data analyst but having strong skills in statistics, databases, modelling, and predictive analytics comes as an added advantage. Data Science demands excellence in skills like Math, Advanced Statistics, Predictive Modelling, Machine Learning, Programming along with Proficiency in using big data tools like Hadoop and Spark, Expertise in SQL and NoSQL databases like Cassandra and MongoDB, Experience with data visualization tools like QlikView, D3.js, and Tableau, Dexterity in programming languages like Python, R, and Scala.

Even though Data Analytics does not demand coding as a skill, Data Science does.

If data science is a home for all the methods and tools, data analytics is a small room in that house.

Hope this was helpful.

Should there be any other query, please feel free to ask.

Good Luck!

Dear aspirant,

At first we would like to congratulate you on your success in VITEEE. Vellore institute of technology offers Computer science and engineering with specialization in artificial intelligence at the Chennai campus and specialization in Data science at Vellore. The analysis of previous trends suggest that you will easily get AI under category 1 at VIT, Chennai. For the data science course seats under category 2 will be available for you to grab as generally all seats in Cse course including specialization are filled around 7k rank.

You need to fill your preferences smartly to justify your rank. All the best for the amazing journey ahead.

Hello dear aspirant

Firstly, congrats on successful completion of your VITEEE exam. When it comes to CS branch, it's really tough to get it as it has high demand these days. The cut-off trends keep changing every year and it depends on the number of students attempting the exam, difficulty level, number of available seats, etc. With a rank near to 61,000, its not possible to get a CSE seat in Vellore or Chennai campus. Whereas, you can easily secure a CS seat in their Amravati (AP) and Bhopal campuses in 1st or 2nd fee categories itself as these are recently established.

VIT AP and VIT Bhopal offer many specialisations in CSE branch such as Artificial Intelligence, Cyber security and Digital forensics, Gaming Technology, Health Informatics, Networking and Security, Data Analytics, Robotics, Business Systems. These courses are future ready and have high placement opportunities. You can opt for the one you like from these specialisations.

hi,

Data science syllabus includes theory of maths, statistics and programming concept. The general eligibility criteria for m.sc mathematics course is candidates must complete b.sc course in mathematics from a recognized university. so after completing b.sc in data science you may apply for m.sc  in data science or MCA (master of computer application) course.

however the eligibility criteria is liable to change from time to time and depends on college authority decision. while applying to any course in college / Institute do follow the information brochure thoroughly before applying.

Hello,

As we all know that now there has been new fields introduced in various colleges across India and most of the fields we can see are related to CSE branch as it is like now there are some of the Specializations which we can do in that particular field because it makes more chance for the students who want CSE as there main option. So talking about your field which you have mentioned ie, AI and DS is also one of the popular choice among the students and also has the same career option like CSE branch students have hence, if your main focus is doing Specialisation than you should definitely go for it from any reputed college.

Thank you..
