              field. It is a combination of                                        research papers from
              computer science,                 Q.3- You were among the           start to end?
              mathematics & business            few students who
              goal aspect & this makes          published an                      Ans- Basically, I like the
              the field of data sciences         international paper. So           subject & I knew that such
              really cool. It’s like you are    what impact it made to            papers are written & it is a
              playing with numbers &            publish a research paper          good thing to do. I was very
              algorithms. In 3rd year I was     after final year?                  curious about it. So I went
              introduced with the concept                                         to ma'am and asked about
              of data mining course that        Ans- It really helped me in       the latest applications of
              Nagori ma'am taught us. So        my application for masters.       data mining. I asked about
              it was my first introduction       It made my application to         what should I read. She told
              to data sciences. So I think      the universities that are         me 2-3 things & one of
              that was pretty much well         really strong one. Because        them was sentiment
              started & then I just went        not everyone has a                analysis. So I searched
              on that track.                    publication on their profiles      about it on Google Scholar. I
                                                & having a relevant               searched on google about
              Q.2-What are the skills           publication helps you get         all the papers of sentiment
              required to pursue career         that extra edge. It makes a       analysis. I found some
              as a data analyst?                proof that the person has         papers there & ma'am also
                                                taken efforts. It showed that      shared some papers with

              programming. That doesn’t         was very fortunate that           actually written in a paper
              mean you have to be very          ma'am was there to help           because it’s technical
              efficient in coding. If you         me. If you find something
