Likes

This course is an online course in which we are taught very good skills.
The best thing about this college is that its fees are low which means even a middle class person can get a good education that too from IIT Madras.

Fees and Financial Aid:

The fees for this course vary according to the category and family income.It is different for SC, different for general, different for ST and the fee is reduced according to the family income. In this course, the fees are for the subjects and not for the whole year. Your fees will be based on the number of subjects you take.The fee for one subject is ?8000 and if you are from the general category then your fee will be 8000 and If you are from SC/ST category then you will get a reduction in your fees. For SC category, up to 50% of your fees can be waived.This means you will have to pay Rs 4000 for one subject even if your family income is low So your fees can be reduced further. This will take you the whole course in 3.5 lakhs. If you get a free waiver, you may have to pay up to 50% less money. It is a very good thing that its fees are reasonable so that even middle class students can get good education from IIT Madras.

Is IITM BS degree in Data Science worth

Likes

The flexibility, it allows us to choose how many courses one want to register according to their capability or time and even allows to pursue this any other Degree along with it.
The curriculum is not outdated unlike many engineering degree's in which we are learning that doesn't have any practical use now.

Dislikes

The fees might be too much for many of the students. Even though fee wavier is there but it's still too much for many students specially those who want to pursue with another degree.

Fees and Financial Aid:

The overall general fee for completing this course is 3,51,000 INR i.e. too much for most of the students. Let's breakdown the fee structure, the course is divided into 4 levels. First phase or level is foundation containing 8 courses that you can complete in 8 months if you go at maximum pace, the fee of foundation level is 32,000 INR, 4K for each course. After completing all the 8 courses a student is promoted to Diploma level which consist 2 Diplomas that takes your 1year and 6months at maximum pace , the fee to complete diploma is 1,25,000 INR. After completing all courses and projects of diploma level students reach Degree level (BSc) where they provide flexibility of taking courses and now promotion is depend upon credits instead of course completion, the fee for this may vary from 2,21,000-2,27,000 INR (from starting). After completing the credit criteria students are promoted in BS degree level which is similar to BSc degree level and its fee varies from 3,15,000-3,51,000 INR.

IITMBS DEGREE A GAME CHANGER FOR EMPLOYABILITY AND EDUCATION IN NDIA

Fees and Financial Aid:

For the foundation course, the fee is 32000 and the for diploma and degree level the fees are different. For exact details of the fees, I would recommend visiting the website study.iitm.ac.in for the latest and accurate information as it keeps on changing as the degree is new. If you have a lower family income and you belong to a lower cast the fees can be as low as 1.50 lakh for a whole degree of 4 years If you do not belong to any of the above categories, the maximum fee you will pay is around 5 lakh for the whole 4 years of a degree. There is a fee reservation by CSR funds. And a scholarship for good academic performers. I have not got any job yet, I am in the first year of course.
