Online MSc Data Science eligibility and admission process

Last reviewed: August 2026

Eligibility by university

Amity University Online
Bachelor's degree in any Science discipline — not restricted to computer science, mathematics, or statistics specifically. No minimum percentage stated.

What's actually different between universities

A genuinely useful, verified fact: Amity's MSc Data Science does not require a computer-science, math, or statistics background specifically — any Science bachelor's degree qualifies. Contrast this with MUJ's MSc Mathematics, which explicitly requires Mathematics as a compulsory subject at graduation level.
