Hi Aspirant,

BSc in Mathematical Science is  a great step for your journey as Data Scientist.It will also be a great step to learn Data Structures and do competitive programming. Now keeping it short let me tell what is needed to be a Data Scientist:

Data Scientist = Mathematics + Statistics + Programming language + Machine Learning and AI + Analytical Skills.

And for jobs in the current scenario, a lot of software engineers and mathematicians have self-taught themselves to fit into the role of data scientist. Many companies including big firms and startups are coming up with the openings of data science, and this seems to be the right time to dive into the field.

Hope this helps.

Good luck!!!

Sourabh Bhatt For data structures you can take up some online tutorials or courses available on internet. And for competitive programming just watch some basic tutorials and start coding on platforms like Codedchef and HackerRank. The practice and time spent there will master you in competitive programming.
