Opportunities for M.Tech- Data Science

1. Data science witnessing applications in diverse research disciplines. Introduction to this program opens up several new opportunities in science and engineering research.

2. Data Scientist positions are new roles where industry is looking for trained  resources. There is a perceivable large gap between the number of opportunities and the trained resources. M. Tech. in Data Science as a Degree

3. Very few institutions offer data science as degree programme that span two years including one year research exposure in this field.

4. M.Tech in Computer Science & Engineering opens plethora of options in the field of academics and research. Students may enroll for Ph.D or work as research fellows in government funded projects.

5. M.Tech is the minimum qualification for Assistant Professors in govt. and private universities/engineering colleges. At present, self paced learning is being promoted by the Govt. of India. Under this initiative, students may contribute in the development of course modules as video lectures and upload them on Internet as MOOC courses.

6. After M.Tech, they are also eligible to be employed as Software Engineers, Data Scientist, Technical Team Head/ Manager, Network Architect and Administrator, ERP Specialist, Training Head, Technical Content Developers and other emerging avenues in the IT industry.
