Review - WILP 2022 | BITS PILANI WILP M TECH Data Science Review | Detailed Feedback | is it worth?

[@1975sekar]

Excellent. Extremely useful points are discussed. Must watch

[@ankittomar_ai]

Thank you for your kind words 😊

[@harishkumarchalki9819]

I have joined WILP in 2021, as mentioned the course actually provides good foundation ...please make a video on how to choose the electives in 2nd semester and how I should move forward so that as I complete the degree I may switch my carrier

[@MdAli-lg3ze]

hello brother hows the exam of semesters

[@lohitlala1798]

Why is there even a question of placements? This is a program specifically for working professionals

[@ankittomar_ai]

You are correct. But still, I get comments who wants to know if there are any possibility to use BITs placement network

[@tanazahmed1440]

Sir, most of the professionals take such courses to switch their career or switch company, so ultimately this is what is the main eye-catching topic.

[@travelfreak18]

Very nice informative video, thanks for your help 😊

[@ankittomar_ai]

Glad you like it 🙂

[@narendraprasath5745]

Thanks a lot again for publishing this useful video. I have question related to the cost you mentioned. You said, This is not worth more than 2L but I could not see any course in India which provide M.Tech degree with this cost? Do you still think this is costly? or do you know any M.Tech degree less than this? It will be useful others also to know about.

[@ankittomar_ai]

Thanks for the comments. In general, courses are overpriced in India. That's What I meant. I agree what you are saying. This is happening due to lobbying in education system.

[@vishnukaladhar]

Regarding the weekend packed disadvantage, do they provide recorded classes and we can plan to attend daily for 4 hours? What are the disadvantage of this strategy

[@ankittomar_ai]

For example, if you miss one week lectures, it becomes very difficult to cover the content during working days. Another is - you would not have time for personal commitments etc.

[@sainishanth1364]

What do you mean by Handson project for Software tester? Do they conduct an online entry test? I saw something like online readiness evaluation test

[@ankittomar_ai]

We should work on handson projects if enrolling in the program. Program is mostly about foundational knowledge

[@payalkiet8850]

Hello sir , I am joining this online mtech program , it is asking about the mentor in the form ,how to find the mentor ?

[@ankittomar_ai]

You can talk to your manager in your office and ask him to be your mentor. It is always good to have your manager as mentor as s/he will be aware of your work and can help you to get into some real projects

[@bhavyajoshi9857]

Hey, thanks for sharing your experience, I have a few questions I wanted to ask you, I am working in data science for almost 2 yrs now (i have fundamental knowledge about ml through courses from coursera), and it's my first job after college. I am thinking of doing a master's in data science from abroad (Europe) and recently came to know about this course. Now, I am confused about whether to pursue a master's from abroad (on-campus MSc basically) or this course. Can you please provide your suggestions on which can be more beneficial for my future?

[@angshumanbhattacharjee8685]

Same question here

[@ankittomar_ai]

One liner - go abroad if you can afford.

[@ankittomar_ai]

Better prospects, high quality jobs

[@jatinverma5503]

Right now due to Ukraine and Russia war, there are lot of housing crisis through out Europe and UK countries, look for an accommodation before going there, only then go for it, and make sure you have to built all by your self. But with this course you can gain same knowledge with your job and staying at home.

[@raisasengupta3660]

Hi Ankit , for dissertation who are assigned as examiner from BITS end ? It's the professors or the TAs ?

[@ankittomar_ai]

Professor

[@nithishkumarganesan9727]

Plz make video Bits B.tech Engineering technology

[@unknown-gv9xm]

Hello Sir. Is B.pharma student eligible for this data science course from Bits pillani. Please tell me I want to do this course

[@sahilctqwergy]

Thanks for a genuine review. I have 10 years of experience but not in DS/DE. It is on the database development side. Will it be a good course to break into Data Engineering?

[@ankittomar_ai]

Hello, this degree is heavily focused on Data science and machine learning. It get into more details about how AI model works. I am not sure if it will help a lot from data engineering side.

[@sahilctqwergy]

@@ankittomar_ai Thanks for your reply. I also felt so. Do you think it would be feasible for me to break into Data Science given that I have no background and already 10 yrs of experience. P.S I am a good learner but not sure what industry is looking for and would they be open to accommodate a profile like me.

[@ankittomar_ai]

My recommendation would be to stick to the data engineering and get into a data engineering role. It is a bigger market and easier to do transition from your current profile. Once you are in, you can add DS/ML as additional skills. Data engineering + one cloud (AWS/GCP/Azure). I am not saying you CAN NOT do data science. I am recommending a path which has the optimal value and lowers your risk. let me know your thoughts.

[@sahilctqwergy]

@@ankittomar_ai I was thinking the same. Very skeptic about jumping into DS ML without a market for “newbies”. Thanks a lot. Great work man. That gives me a lot of clarity. Any Masters course (part time/online) / Online Comprehensive courses/ Certifications that would help me with Data Engg? Or self learning would be a better choice?

[@Akashhanjagi]

Thank you for the Genuine review 🙏 well explained 👏

[@ankittomar_ai]

Glad you like it. Thanks 👍

[@anuragdwivedi1804]

Yes. Few teachers will. But you get all books by yourself

[@peacelover-pn7ze]

Can mechanical engineers do this course there????

[@ankittomar_ai]

Yes you can

As per eligibility criteria, answer is No

What is the Fee of this course and duration ?

[@ankittomar_ai]

Recently it was increased, you can find it here -bits-pilani-wilp.ac.in/m-tech/cluster/data-science-and-engineering.php Its 2 years program

[@anshulesh]

@@ankittomar_ai thanks!! Ankit for reverting. I’m in bit dilemma’s of doing MBA in BA from bits or MTech from Bits ? Help me with your experiences over in bits courses.

[@ankittomar_ai]

Hi Anshul, I am not sure about MBA program but can speak of M.Tech - It is a good program provided you put extra efforts in finding the hands-on project opportunities. AI is talk of the town and it is going to be the most sought after skill in upcoming years. If I would be you and have interest in tech , then M.Tech would be a better option.

[@balubalu8131]

Is it good to join Wipro integrated learning program

[@pravakarbhadury4966]

I have a doubt Bits pilani have only 3 campus Rajasthan Hyderabad and Goa.. Then those who are pursuing wilp mtech degree from different state which campus does wipro providing for mtech.. Is it online course or offline?

[@GhostRider....]

Bits Pilani from Rajasthan and it is online

[@ankittomar_ai]

Right 👍
