I am looking to start a career in data science, and about to start a MSc course in either data analysis or data science. the data science course would be the obvious choice, but I was wondering if taking a course in analytics would impede me much in getting data science jobs, especially if i choose topics and modules such as to minimise the difference (machine learning etc). Would these two courses be quite specific to their respective jobs, or does it not particularly matter at this stage (are they similar enough to give a good background for either job)? also, how common and easy is it to switch between analyst and scientist? (I ask because the universities are different, otherwise would just choose the data science course!)
