M.Sc. – Data Science

VISION

To become a center of Excellence offering quality education and innovation in Computer Science and Information Technology to meet out the societal needs.

MISSION

1. To develop the students to excel in the field of Computer Science and Information Technology.

2. To motivate and prepare the students to pursue higher studies and to develop sustainable innovative solutions for the society.

Overview

Kalasalingam Academy of Research and Education decided to launch its Data Science programme to meet the global needs of industrial world. With this aim, Master of Science in Data Science programme was offered from the year 2018. This Programme aim to attract bright students throughout the worldfor quality education at post-graduate level. This programme is designed to provide a learning ambience to enhance innovations, problem solving skills, leadership qualities, team-spirit, ethical responsibilities and to equip the graduates with the necessary skills in statistical data analysis andto understand the computing for data science.It is envisioned to apply mathematics, logic, and statistics to the design,development and analysis of software systems.

Why M.Sc. – Data Science?

M.Sc (Data Science) programme is rigorous in the implementation of current IT-related technologies and skills in demand.With encroachment of technology in society, there will be more and more demand for Data Science in diverse sectors. It enables the integration of theory and practice to build a strong foundation for professional employment or research in the discipline. The department has qualified faculty who teach specialized areas likeMachine Learning, Deep Learning, Linear Predictive Analysis, Advanced Database Management Systems and RProgramming. Being a pervasive discipline for all science courses it encourage students to pursue diverse inter-disciplinary interests.Companies are earnestly seeking data scientists to deal with the challenges of Big Data.Be it financial services, healthcare, retail, education or even security and governance, data science is now increasingly used.This PG Programme will lay a persuasive theoretical foundation that will empower the students to develop their own customized data science algorithms desired for deriving insights from very large data sets, which are now continuously generated, thanks to IoT, Social Media and Digitisation.
