One of my friends is currently doing her Bachelor's in Science, specifically in Applied Science and Statistics from NMIMS- Kharghar campus. She has given me some input which I will be sharing with you.

Frankly, everything so far has been excellent for her. She appreciates the syllabus and all that's taught. The syllabus covers all that one needs to know about Data Science and its basics. My friend is about to get into the 3rd semester after this Corona wave is over.

The basics that were covered in first year were:

• Mathematics - Calculus
• Statistics - Descriptive
• Probability and Distribution
• Economics - Micro and Macro

For coding, she had: "C" language, DBMS, "R", SPSS, SCILAB and Python (from the second year of syllabus)

Actuarial Science and additional projects were added by the time she had reached her second year. You are seen as more experienced when you begin studying Actuarial Science. It is sufficient to cover all your basics that concern Data Science.

Along with a brilliant syllabus arrives a pretty hectic schedule. There are regular exams wherein you will only get a week for preparation. Not only this but there are presentations, assignments and projects to cover and submit before the deadline.

It is going to be a thrilling experience as all the knowledge and information will help you understand how to perform well under any circumstances with perfection.
