Power BI vs Data Science

The published figures from each course's own page, side by side — duration, fees, tools, careers and starting pay — so you can compare without opening two tabs.

Data Science's published band tops out higher (₹38,000 vs ₹30,000 for a fresher) — though the gap closes fast with a portfolio, and both climb well past these figures with experience.

Questions

Still deciding?

Yes — plenty of students do, usually one after the other rather than at the same time. Finish the first with a working portfolio before starting the second; running both together tends to leave you half-finished on each.

Data Science's published band tops out higher (₹38,000 vs ₹30,000 for a fresher) — though the gap closes fast with a portfolio, and both climb well past these figures with experience.

Both start at Module 01 with nothing assumed, so "easier" really comes down to which kind of work you'd rather be doing daily — see the tools and topics compared above before deciding on difficulty alone.

You don't have to decide from this page alone. A free counselling session maps your own background to one of these two directly, in about 20 minutes.
