           It is pleasure to the head of Department of Computer Science and Engineering (Data Science) at D.Y. Patil College of Engineering and Technology, Kolhapur. The Department presently offers a Four Year B.Tech. degree programme in Computer Science & Engineering with specializations in Data Science from 2020-21. The department has a team of highly experienced and motivated faculty members who are in process of tuning the young minds to make them globally competitive. The strength of the department is highly motivated students who understand the dynamics of the industry and upgrade their skills accordingly. Data Science is concerned with the extraction of knowledge from structuredand unstructured data using scientific procedures, processes, and techniques derived from several domains such as statistics, cognitive science, computing, and information science. Data Science is an interdisciplinary course which combines broad areas of statistics, analytics, visualization of data and Knowledge Extraction. In today’s technical world where data is growing exponentially, data science ensures that the huge incoming data is properly handled, efficiently analysed and extracts useful knowledge for business development. This course helps students to build mathematical and engineering skills required to advance their career as a Data Scientist or Data Engineer. In our department, we not only give emphasis on study but also make students ready for industry with practical exposure to Data Science. Through an innovative teaching-learning process, a teamwork approach and leadership-building experience, our students gain vital communication and critical-thinking skills. Our institution provides a platform for students to enhance their employability skills through Industry Institute Collaboration.
