BTech DS involves development of basic foundational blocks that will be used by Data Scientists to build and deliver large scale data-driven applications. BSc in Data Science programs are usually three year programs that teach how to effectively compose the foundational blocks to build large scale applications. So, one focuses on the practical aspects while the other focuses on the theory. Both have great employment potential.
