Introduction to Data Science
Data Science is a technology that goes behind handling and working with data in the 21st century. Data Science concepts have proved to be a pinnacle in the last couple of years with the onset of Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning.
The core foundation of Data Science lies in the aspect of how insights can be drawn about using raw and unstructured data. In the world that is increasingly becoming a digital space, organisations deal with zettabytes and yottabytes of structured and unstructured data every day. Evolving technologies have enabled cost savings and smarter shortage spaces to store critical data. Data Science is one such technology that is viable and cost-efficient for extracting the genuine data and storing it in a proper and secured format.
Few lines about B.Sc Data Science
B.Sc Data Science is a 3-year full-time course that is divided into 6 semesters. The aim of the course is to train the students on multi-disciplinary subjects like Statistics, Big Data Analytics, Machine Learning and related aspects of data mining and data interpretation.

Admission Procedure
The students can take admission to B.Sc Data Science by two modes of admission. The first one is merit-based admission and second one is direct admission. Let’s discuss in detail about them
1. Merit-Based Admission
There are many top and reputed educational institutes that conduct institution-based entrance exams for B.Sc Data Science course, such mode of admission is called merit-based admission.
