Career Counseling System For Graduate Student Using Machine Learning

Abstract

Proper Career Counselling of final year undergraduate student is an important task of Higher Education system because it shapes the entire life of a student and change their life to next level.  This is basically a task of a good teacher who observed their student minutely and guided them but number of such teachers are not up to the mark and this became a serious problem in higher education. Most of the student in India choose their career based on relatives’ suggestions, friends’ suggestions or influenced by media and internet without knowing their own potential and liking they blindly follow others suggestions. Due to lack of career guidance many of them are not happy with their job because the job they choose cannot suit their natural behaviour. We can solve this problem with the help of Artificial Intelligence. In this paper I am implementing a Machine Learning based Recommendation System that help student to choose their career among business and higher study depending upon eight parameters. I am using python to implement our recommender system using Decision Tree and Random Forest algorithms.
