which course is better in Amrita University Coimbatore. Cse or Cse with artificial intelligence. which one has more salary package

Hi,

Machine learning and Artificial intelligence has wide scope in all engineering disciplines and has wide area of application, in near future demanding of AI and ml will be higher, whether in current market scenerio data science is also demanding, if you have interest for statistics and probability oriented functional approach you should take cse with data science.

The thing that stands out with CSE AI is the fact that it’s brand new. The syllabus is freshly designed and I have to admit, it looks exciting ( you can find the syllabus on Amrita’s website) - it is focused and it doesn’t totally neglect CS fundamentals. The coursework is mostly projects, rather than leaning on an exam-oriented approach. It might be more “intense” than the traditional CS - but that is something relative so don’t rely on that. Overall, it sounds exciting - choose it, if you know what you are doing. Don’t make ‘blind’ decision solely based on the fact that you hear that “AI” is the next big thing or not. Make your own research, try to understand what “AI” is really about, try to find what the fields within it are (it’s a huge, huge area) - you can find anything from low level data analytic jobs working with spreadsheets and that is “AI” to PhD-research-level stuff - and where you can end up depends on your interest and your passion, and to discover both, it takes time and effort from your side. If you don’t like AI, don’t choose it and that should be obvious. Your normal CS course would give you a taste of almost everything in CS. If you still have no idea, try to find seniors, alumni and faculty and talk with them directly.

On a final note, anything new has its own ‘risk’ simply because of the fact that it is new and hasn’t stood the test of time. That being said, both of them are pretty good choices.

Hope this helps.

All the best.
