Which is better, data science engineering or electrical engineering at IIT Mandi?

In choosing among two streams, a candidate should go with his/her own interest first. If at some point he/she is in doubt, the stream with maximum opportunity and facilities must have opted. Among the above two departments, data science and engineering can be considered as the better option. The points below state some reasons supporting the cause of choice.

• Even being a newer branch, Data science and engineering at IIT Mandi is a stream worth studying, and most students like its curriculum.
• The curriculum of Data science and engineering is quite similar to that of computer science and engineering. So, if the student loses interest in data science in the future, he/she can opt for anything else in computer science easily at any point in time.
• Even students from electrical engineering can change their matter of interest while studying in IIT Mandi but, from data science, it is easier.

Thus, data science and engineering is the preferred option, looking into the facts of curriculum and opportunities. Even the cut-off rank for Data science and engineering is lesser than electrical engineering in IIT Mandi.
