Dear Aspirant

Even though

  • Statistics

  • Linear Algebra

  • Programming

  • Machine Learning Skills

  • Data Mining

Parallely Which helps you alot ahead

Hope it helps you out
All the best

Hi Apu,

Data Scientist is about analysing the huge amount of data, so most tools or subjects for this are Machine Learning, AI, Python and R programming. Knowledge of Hadoop platform, SQL Database coding and Data visualisation. Your subjects will not help upto that level, so do include this subjects in your course.
