Both Data Science Engineering and Electrical Engineering at IIT Mandi are excellent programs with their own strengths and unique opportunities. The nature and job opportunities of both programs are poles apart.
Data Science Engineering focuses on the application of statistical and computational methods to extract insights from data. It covers topics like probability, visualization, numbers, algorithms, and such.
Electrical Engineering on the other hand is related to the design and development of electrical systems, such as power generation and distribution, control systems, and communications.
It’s better to research the curriculum and course offerings of both programs, as well as speak with current students or faculty to gain a better understanding of which program aligns best with your interests and goals.
IIT Hyderabad is one of the prestigious academic institutions to pursue data science courses.
