[@yanishshrestha8331]

@@ibi_phobia Just my opinion, why need to do Masters in DS, when we are able to do Bachelor's in DS, if we ultimately want to become Data scientist! Right!?

Computer science is about algorithms and programming a new idea as with the data science is just using programs written by computer scientists to help facilitate a data analysis. Data scientists are nowhere close to a computer scientist.
