Context
Today, we're living in a world that's all about data. From the food we eat, the
music we listen to, to the health care services we receive - everything is
being shaped by data. 

And this is where the magic of data science and machine learning comes
into play.

In healthcare, data scientists are using algorithms to predict diseases,

improving patient outcomes.

Financial institutions are harnessing machine learning to detect fraudulent

transactions in real-time.

Even in agriculture, farmers are leveraging data science to optimize yields

and manage resources efficiently.

The list is endless!

However, the best part is data revolution isn't limited to just one or two
industries. It's everywhere. This means, as data scientists or machine
learning engineers, the opportunities are immense.

Data is the new oil. And the ability to extract insights from this data is a
superpower.

According to LinkedIn’s emerging jobs report, data science has emerged as

the fastest-growing job requirement globally, striking more than 650%
growth. From USD 37.9 billion in 2019, the market will show an upward arc to
reach USD 230.80 billion by 2026.

As per the Bureau of Labour Statistics, jobs in data science will escalate by
27.9% by 2026. 

This is the reason why many learners are upskilling in the Data Science
domain & building industry-relevant projects enabling them to achieve great
outcomes as Data Scientists.

3
Some benefits of upskilling & transitioning to the Data Science domain
include:

1. High Compensation 

2. High Impactful work 

3. Future Growth in the Tech Sector

However, learners face many challenges while upskilling → 

1. Lack of exposure to solving real-world business case studies & build

projects while working on real data sets.

2. Feel overwhelmed by the vastness of the Data Science domain & not sure
where to start, or where to end.

3. Lack of mentorship & community support to help them provide upskilling

& opportunities to get them successfully transition to Data Science roles.

We understand our learner's challenges & to overcome them, we designed

Bosscoder Data Science Program as an industry-focused curriculum that
features Business Case-Studies & Datasets from real companies.

Furthermore, post-upskilling, our devoted recruitment team bridges learners

with premier product companies and startups. They facilitate interview
opportunities and aid in a successful transition to a data scientist role,
ensuring your skills find their perfect match in the professional realm.
