Hi,

The job has come from a wide range of industries and not just Technology but also other fields as well. Can you believe how far we have come when almost everything is being controlled by artificial intelligence and machine learning. That is why data science has come into the play and it will be a winner no matter what.

Many Indian universities have been offering data science degrees at various levels. Hundreds of institutions across the country offer data science courses, some of which are regarded as excellent but few of these degree institutions still need improvement. Thus, I recommend that if not these top colleges, then go for the institutions that provide data science courses. My most favourite out of so many is Learnbay.

Let's take a look at these top colleges in India that provide courses for data science. All of these colleges are very highly reputed and the fee structure of these colleges is also very high. But they are all worth it!

Most of these faculties teaching hair are working professionals as data scientists or machine learning engineers.

2. IIM Kolkata: the institute offers an advanced program in data science with specialisation for mainly working professionals at the top leadership level.
