Data Science
Degree track focused on analytics, statistical thinking, and data products.
Where this leads
The confusion, addressed honestly
The myth is that Data Science equals Kaggle medals and flashy neural nets — so students ignore SQL, messy data, and stakeholder questions. Analyst and data-engineering fresher roles often hire faster than "ML engineer," and they care whether you can clean a real dataset, write queries, and turn a finding into a decision. A dashboard with no question answered is decoration; a short analysis that changed a club/hostel/business choice is evidence. Keep ML as a tool when the problem needs it, not as identity. Outcomes change when your portfolio shows judgment on imperfect data.
