    OR
  • Students who have graduated majoring in Economics, with Econometrics as one of the Courses or students who have graduated in BAF/BMS/BBA/BFM/BBI/BCom Program of this University or any other University equivalent thereto will also be eligible for admission, provided they had passed Standard XII Board Examination with either Mathematics or Statistics as one of the subjects and undergoes the proposed Bridge Course of 1 credit each in Mathematics, Statistics and IT, each for a duration of 15 hours, satisfactorily.

    AND
  • Provided further the candidates hold a Graduate/Post Graduate Degree with a minimum of 60% marks or CGPA 6.5 on a 10-point scale in the qualifying Degree of BSc/ BCA/ B.Tech./B.E./ BA/ BAF/ BMS/ BBA/ BFM/ BBI/ BCom or equivalent will be eligible for this program provided he/she has scored not less than 60% in aggregate at the other threshold Examinations of Standard X and Standard XII.

    *Note: Candidates from the SC / ST Category will be eligible for a relaxation of 5% in respect of the above requirement.

  • An Entrance Exam will be conducted for admission to the course.
  • Maximum intake for the program per year is 30.

Bridge Course:

  • There shall be a ‘Bridge Course’ in the relevant subjects, of approximately 15 hours each, at the beginning of the academic session which will be offered to the students who are admitted for the MSc Program in Big Data Analytics.
  • It is mandatory to complete the Bridge Course in the relevant subject/s as decided by the Program Coordinator and to the satisfaction of the Course teacher.
    • A student who has not graduated with Statistics as a major subject will be required to undergo the Bridge Course in Statistics.
    • A student who has not graduated with Mathematics as a major subject will be required to undergo the Bridge course in Mathematics.
    • Similarly, a student who has not graduated in either B.Sc. IT or B.C.A will be required to undergo the Bridge Course in Information Technology/Basic Programming.
  • Only on successful completion of the required Bridge Course, will the student be admitted to the M.Sc. Big Data Analytics and be eligible to enroll with the University of Mumbai for the same.
