Most B.Tech programmes follow a similar pattern: the first year builds the foundations (mathematics, science and programming), the middle years go deep into the subject, and the final year is given over to electives, a major project and usually an internship.

Here that means turning raw data into decisions: statistics, Python and SQL, data cleaning, visualisation and machine learning. Typical first jobs: data analyst, data scientist, business analyst or analytics consultant. Many graduates also go on to a master's degree.

The exact syllabus is set by the college or its affiliating university and changes from year to year, so ask Lok Jagruti University for the current semester-wise plan.

The fee figures on record for this course are below. Fees are for the whole course unless marked otherwise.

Colleges revise fees most years, and hostel, transport and exam charges are often billed separately. Confirm the current figure with Lok Jagruti University before you pay anything.
