Title: Clarity about which Specialization to Choose
INTRODUCTION:
Many People Don’t have a clear idea about which specialization to choose in post- graduation. Through the research we are aiming to conclude whether the students know which specialization to choose in post- graduation.
OBJECTIVE:
To get the views of students on whether they are clear about which Specialization to choose in post- graduation.
DATA COLLECTION:
For the given problem five questions were framed on Likert scale.
Following are the five questions-
1) I have clear understanding about the subject.
2) I am clear about which specialization to choose
3) I have no clue about which specialization to take
4) I would like to explore different domains before selecting the specialization
5) I will select the specialization on the basis of job roles offered in the campus placement process?
We prepared a Google form, containing the questions, which was sent to college students, the employees of an IT company and to certain other people randomly. A total of 100 people responded to the survey.
The options provided on the Likert scale were “Strongly Disagree”, “Disagree”, “Neutral”, “Agree” and “Strongly Agree”.
We converted the collected data into an excel sheet, and the result was calculated with the formula: Z=(X-µ)/SE, where µ was taken as ‘3’. (Since the scale was from 1 to 5)
DATA ANALYSIS-
STATEMENTS I have clear understanding about the subject
I am clear about which specialization to choose I have no clue about which specialization to take I would like to explore different domains before selecting the specialization I will select the specialization on the basis of job roles offered in the campus placement process

If Z is between 1.96 and -1.96, people are neutral
If Z is less than – 1.96 accept negatively
FINDINGS-
1. From the computed z value of 2.40 we see that students have clear understanding about the subject
2. From the computed z value of 5.99 we see that students have clarity about which specialization to choose
3. From the computed z value of 1.58 we see that students are neutral in have no clue about which specialization to take.
4. From the computed z value of 2.39 we see that students would like to explore different domains before selecting the specialization
5. From the computed z value of 1.89 we see that students are neutral in selecting the specialization on the basis of job roles offered in the campus placement process.
