Also, keeping an eye on the average starting salaries offered to the data science experts, they are getting heavily paid. So, further pursuing a master's degree in data science can be a great resource to me for a rewarding career ahead in the future.
Briefly describing my academic history, I completed my school level studies in year 20xx (matriculation exams in year 20xx, securing 1st division and senior secondary certificate exam with non-medical stream in year 20xx, securing 1st division) and college-level of studies (bachelor of computer applications degree, securing 1st division) in year 20xx. And now, for pursuing a master's in data science degree course, I have chosen to study MSc Data Science course at Middlesex University London for September 20xx intake.
For my further studies, I researched various options available to me in the field of data science, not only in India but in various other abroad countries including USA, UK and Australia etc. In my research I found that it is best suitable to me, pursuing a master's degree course in data science in the UK instead of India, USA, or Australia. Researching about the details of master degree course options available at Indian institutions (BITS Pilani, IIT Hyderabad, IIT Guwahati and Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham etc.) I found that for admission to respective master degree course option in data science (master of technology in data science) at these institutions a better rank in GATE exam would be necessarily required. But in order to have a decent rank, competitive enough to seek admission at these institutions, I might have to sit for the said exam for more than once. So, firstly I have to make plans for scoring well in the said exam and then I can think of pursuing master of technology in data science course at these institutions. So, I started thinking about finding some suitable course options in abroad for further studies.
I found it quite suitable to me, studying further in the UK over USA or Australia. UK is placed among top-ranked study abroad destinations globally, housing some of the finest institutions in the world i.e. University College London, University of Oxford etc. It is a very well-known fact that UK institutions offer world-class facilities for study. Also, English being the language of communication in the UK, I can greatly enhance my English language skills while living in the UK. It is relatively cheaper to study a master's in data science degree at reputed institutions in the UK. Also, I can get a waiver for an English language exam score for admission to respective master's in data science degree courses at institutions in the UK whereas at most of the reputed institutions in USA or Australia, it is highly recommended to submit an English language exam score to fulfill respective course entry requirements.
And on noticing that it is suitable to me, pursuing my further studies in the UK I researched various options available in the UK for pursuing a master's degree in data science and found it, best suitable to me, studying further at Middlesex University London. Middlesex University is one of the top-ranked academic institutions in the world; in QS World University Rankings, it is ranked among the top 701-750 universities worldwide.
