Thank you Mr.Klein for always emphasizing on the importance of projects and experience rather than papers and certifications.

Great video! I opted for a Masters in computer science with a concentration in ML / AI over a Masters in data science. From my experience, this degree holds slightly more weight in industry. I had to learn many concepts unrelated to data science, but I have been able to leverage many of these skills in my personal projects. Nothing against Masters in DS programs, but I think that this path is also a very viable route!

Oh wow that's what I'm about to do. At first I was debating between getting a masters in data analytics vs a masters in computer science and in my opinion I think a masters in computer science with a concentration in machine learning makes more sense because at my school it goes more in depth into AI/ML than the data analytics program. Not saying the masters program for data analytics is bad just that I like to go as in depth into machine learning and acquire as strong of a foundation as possible.

Hi Ken, would you say an MS in CS from Stevens Institute of Technology would be a good choice?

I would like to share my experience, I am an ungrad in computer science and have immense interest in data science , when I was in my third year of uni I started slogging all soughts of concepts of machine learning and data science which was really fruitful for me.Done certain research work even and landed a job as a data scientist.One thing I learned in my struggle days was that the more force u put to learn something more amazing will be the output.Love learning guys This man has always been a inspiration for me.

Top notch transitions in this episode. I particularly enjoyed the brolly transition :)

Thank you so much for the information!! It was super helpful and loved the creativity in your video which isn’t just sitting in a room and talking!

Dude, awesome video and absolutely spectacular green landscape in a very depressing UK skyline that is ALWAYS gray and liquid sunshine-y. Thanks for sharing your perspectives!

You cannot get a Data Analyst or Data Scientist jobs if you don’t graduate at the famous schools/universities with a bachelor degree. Otherwise, they require minimum 3-5 years experience, or at least have Master or Ph.D.

Great content as always and extremely relevant. Please make a video on how older professionals can get into this field. I am a meteorologist working with the govt. Developed love for data science while working with weather data and so want to get into this field full time.

Thanks for information about data science courses in Coursera. I am going to learn it.

This guy gives me a hope of stepping into this field without a masters and PhD. I have seen other software developers on KZread who emphasize that jobs are scarce in data science and without a degree and experience in this field, chances are slim. So, they push you to learn web stack development side of things to get quickly employed than putting your effort into this field.

The way you put together different perspectives was really helpful.

Here is my background: I have a masters in exercise science, not a very useful degree unless I go for a doctorate in some related field which I am not interested in doing. I have no background in business, marketing, or computer science for that matter, but I enjoy mathematics and statistics and learning to code. My job experience is weak to say the least; overnight crew at a grocery store, salesfloor team member at Target, personal trainer at 24 hour fitness, and a physical therapy aid at a local clinic since graduating with my masters. Essentially, I have been making minimum or near minimum wage since graduation. My question is: Since I have no technical background and essentially no job experience related to data science, would investing upwards of 60k for a masters in data science give me any sort of edge versus if I tried to learn everything on my own? I understand doing capstone projects and uploading them to GitHub is helpful, but I would also be doing this as part of a curriculum and getting credentials for it. I feel like the degree would give me more credibility and the skills to work on more projects. I ask this because I am already near 100k in debt from my exercise science degree but jobs are very limited, and I enjoy coding and working with numbers much more so than working at a clinic or at gym trying to sell training packages.

Just in time!!!! I was thinking about getting a MsC abroad next year but I was wondering if that was a good idea. Question: can you do this job part-time? And is it a good option?

Great video bud 👍

Love your contents! very well said. I always look forward to your videos. A kind suggestion, can you please not add music in the background while you talk? It's very distracting. Being hard-of-hearing, it's like listening to two things at once. It's hard to focus on what you are saying. Thanks!

I’ll like videos content and the way u introduce that content to audience

I was wondering what kind of data science project is enough for entry level position

Hey Giles. Very informative video. I recently talked to a college about an MSc in Data Science, they said they teach R in their semesters but expect you to do your dissertation in Python (they also said "you can always submit your papers in Python but we teach R"). Does that make any sense? Wouldn't it be confusing for someone who has already been studying Python on his own, like me? Also, what do you think of Tableau?

3:18 that is such a beautiful place would love to go hiking there

Thank you...your videos are great motivation.

Exactly what people need to hear. You dont need a phd if you are not going to do state of the art stuff. If your undergrad course is somehow lacking something, a masters will help you so much.

4:44 what a splendid transition

Where do you live? The surroundings are alluring to say the least.

Not everyone needs formal education to impart this knowledge after undergrad, especially when it comes to applying it to business problems, which is often a data scientist’s primary goal. Degrees (Master’s included) are a dime a dozen these days. Putting business problems first and only then ideating and applying relevant ML models is not.

Nice, video. Giles. U clarified my query. I too have the same question. U r doing very innovative ways in videos.

Out of curiosity, what sort of educational background does the Python Programmer have?

I am sort of coming from the other direction. My work is transitioning me to a data analytics position from an operations background. This first year I am mostly developing data analytics skills in excel, with some soft use of SAS and SQL. I was hoping to leverage the opportunity to grow into a more data science-oriented position, not research-oriented, but more business predictive and analysis oriented. I was afraid that there was a hard line between analytics and data science, but at the end of this video, you even mention that as the typical career development. So, am I in a good spot to put the time in developing skills on my own as I learn on the job and work my way up?

Is a research masters (MPhil) in Statistics or Econometrics good preparation for becoming a data scientist/analyst? Are there subfields within statistics or econometrics that are particularly relevant to data analysis? (Monte-carlo methods or time series analysis?)

I am an undergraduate student doing my engineering in electronics and communication department. Do you think I can shift my career path to become a data scientist? How?

Hey Python Programmer! I'm currently doing my bachelors in statistics & actuarial science. I've been picking up some python skills (learning the necessary libraries: pandas, numpy, scikit learn, etc). I plan on also learning SQL in the coming months with hopes to land a data science internship next summer. How possible is it for me to land a job right in the field of data science, rather than data analytics? Here in America, data scientists are compensated far more than analysts, and I would really prefer this. Also, outside of using machine learning techniques in their careers, what more does a data scientist do over a data analyst? Thanks so much for your informative and inspiring videos. You have no idea how much you've helped me in this field❤.

@DS-gr3mq

5 жыл бұрын

I'm doing a Research Masters in Operations Research with the topic being to use online(real-time) reinforcement and Simulation based learning methods on queue networks that are too complex for analytical or closed form analysis. So how does something like this link to Data analysis? Data analysis is mostly supervised and unsupervised learning. In operations research you use reinforcement learning as mean of Optimal control and unsupervised learning (HMM, Kalman filter and Bayes network) to deal with partially observable scenarios. You will also need to know your standard optimization algorithms as well as some metaheuristic algorithms. Optimization algorithms also allow you to understand machine learning from the bayesian perspective as opposed to this neural network rubbish you see these days (neural networks are great but we don't actually know how to explain the results they obtain). All in all, modern operations research is all about Artificial intelligence...and the difficult side of it. No data cleaning nonsense and copy paste from scikit learn and theano documentation bs. So you don't analyse as much as you model and optimise. Your data sometimes also come from simulations. If you can do these things, you will be much more employable than a Data Analyst.
