As you are reading, though, consider this statistic from Gartner Research that I found recently: 71% of current Data Scientists hold a master’s degree or Ph.D. (Trends in Data Science and Machine Learning Talent by Peter Krensky, 16 November 2020, ID G00730094).

Do you need a Master’s Degree in Data Science? You are asking the wrong question.

Just to be clear, Gartner stated that 71% of Data Scientists had a Master’s in Data Science and not 71% had a Master’s (without specifying the field e.g. Maths, Programming, Engineering etc…)?

I was under the impression it was the latter.
