    Before doing all these studies, pick a field where you would like to work as a data scientist. That simplifies a lot of things. For instance, you can only focus on learning specific statistical methods, learn about data in your chosen field, master one programming language + SQL, and learn about cloud computing basics. Let s say that you like to be a data scientist in finance. Then learn statistics relevant to finance, SAS, advanced Excel, SQL. Let's say that you like to be a data scientist in biotech. Then you need a biotech-related PhD + cloud computing + R or Python programming, SQL Let's say that you like to be data scientist focused on Analytics (like most META hiring), you need to learn very basic statistics, SQL, knowledge about products by that particular company. Once you find a job, Keep learning, research on real-world problem solving.

    Hey! I did exactly the same combination as you in undergrad. I also went on to do a DS MS and it was totally the right decision for me. I recommend you start digging into some stats courses if you can before making the decision. Personally I finished my Math BS having taken 0 stats classes because "that wasn't REAL math". Big mistake. If I could go back in time I would've taken a lot more stats and a lot less topology and number theory.

    Great resources! I loved the fact that you included textbooks that require proofs. For me, the type of math taught at engineering schools is what I'd call (in an analogy to software testing) "black-box math": you know how to do computations, you know what the theorems are used for, but you don't get to see the "code", the logical structure that makes all these theorems actually true. I prefer "white-box math", even if it's a lot harder, it's a lot more rewarding at the end of the day, and you end up having a more profound understanding of how and why things work.

It helps particularly when you are going to be working in the same code for a long period of time or with a larger team of people.

For Probability and Statistics I used Introductory Probability and Statistical Applications by Paul L Meyer and Introduction to the Theory of Statistics by Alexander M Mood, Franklin A Graybill and Duane C Boes. Although not my favourite at university, because I worked in the Banking industry afterwards Statistics proved to be one of the more useful subjects I learned at university.

    Norm Matloffs book on R is excellent. I use both R and Python. I'd say that for all things stats related, I use R. I tend to use python for a lot of data pipelining and nlp. The statistics procedures in python tend to be problematic. I don't believe in language wars though. I use C/C++/fortran within r and python to speed up stuff as needed as well. I also keep SAS guides handy. They are excellent for understanding procedures and have paper references. It's fallen out of favor though. 'Design and analysis of experiments' is good to have. Great job including it. Not many people understand that topic.or the need for it. I'd recommend knowing hierarchical modeling as well. Gelman and Hills book is one I would highly recommend. Last thing I would like to make clear is that you would be a good data scientist if you don't think with your tools/math first. Tools are tools. Your job is to solve problems. In most cases, the reason for your job is to enable the employer to make or save money. Many data scientists think their job is an extension of grad school. So, they want to use the latest and greatest algorithm they read about. Great minds. But highly ineffective, who end up wasting their and everyone else's time. Putting things into use in a running machine like a complex business, is hard in itself. The more complicated your solution, the longer it will take to make it useful, it will be expensive to maintain, will need constant supervision, and leave everyone exhausted and exasperated. This is not trivial. Data Science courses popping up produce unusable talent because it's taught by people who have never done any real work.

    Some other recommendations to add, but it could be a little over the top, are books of machine learning. Pretty good free books, that can be downloaded free (and legally) are "Elements of Statistical Learning" of Hastie, Tibshirani and Friedman: this one requires advanced mathematics, similar to the requirements you mentioned for the Mathematical Statistics book, and is THE book to learn machine learning. But there are other book of the same authors, "An Introduction to Statistical Learning" of Witten, James, Tibshirani and Hastie that tries to be more about application of machine learning with less mathematical deep. Still is really good

    As you mentioned references quite a few times in this video. In data science/engineering it is so damn important to be precise to the letter about what assumptions, tools, methods, and state of data you used when, and why. Clean work is always important in any science or engineering topic, but in applied work with data, it is so easy to be off significantly. And expressions that clearly show you that you are wrong like the lagrangian in mechanics are rare. In Europe we use the Lothar Papula quite a lot for math, I learned python by extending the basics, tutorials, and examples from the documentation. Now I`m working with "Data-Driven Science and Engineering" by Brunton & Kutz as well as "Dynamic Data Analysis: Modeling Data with Differential Equations". It's quite tailored to control theory and system engineering so might not be the best "Data Science" book but it`s great if you want to build robots, machines, etc.

    Great video! The following information that I will provide should be taken with a grain of salt. If a person is a college student, one beneficial major that could lead to a future career in Data Science is Computer Science (CS) with a minor in Statistics. When comparing a Computer Science Degree with a Data Science Degree, the coursework is fairly similar. As an undergraduate, I prefer a Computer Science Degree as it emphasizes programming concepts that will help when applying for jobs as a majority of Data Science jobs require a Master's Degree for candidacy, while CS jobs mostly require a Bachelor's Degree. Additionally, a minor in Statistics would allow students to cover the statistical concepts mentioned in this video.

So It's good that you just made a video on books on how to get started!

    So crazy because I was researching what I should learn in mathematics next! I’m an engineering major and I’ve taken Elementary Linear Algebra, Ordinary Differential equations, and Multivariable Calculus. I’m curious about statistics because I will take a statistics class for engineering and a math methods class for engineering. I do not want to stop learning math because I love it so much. Should I continue to learn about statistics or should I go down discrete mathematics, math proofs, real analysis ect. Maybe learn about PDEs or complex variables? It’s very confusing which one I should do or how a math subject is relevant to me and engineering. To be more specific, I’m a mechanical engineering major. I’ve been watching your channel since I went back to college and started taking college algebra! That was two years ago!

    In order to learn more upper level math, you need analysis and math proofs and you should have a course on discrete math. But not the typical discrete math a CS major takes, that is usually a bit too elementary and easily learned through your intro to proofs class (at my college the proofs class counts for discrete math as well), so take a course in applied combinatorics or something similar. Your course in statistics is probably great for engineers and stuff but after one class you can't get far without a background in combinatorics and proofs. Even my first undergraduate introduction to probability theory assumed most students were or had taken analysis and the prerequisites were applied combinatorics, proofs and multi . So, needless to say, proofs and combinatorics are both really important. Additionally, any graduate level probability or some statistics will require analysis all the way through measure theory (typically three semesters worth of analysis). For your goals though, I would say your statistics course will suffice for now as a mechanical engineer. I personally think that you would get a lot more out of both PDEs and Complex Analysis. Both of which are beautiful and extremely relevant for all mechanical engineering occupations. Additionally, you should consider numerical analysis but it may be too much for your degree. Consider it though, it's really interesting and just as relevant as PDEs to mechanical engineers.

That makes sense that the proofs class and real analysis are the key to the upper division levels because I have seen real analysis is a prerequisite for many upper level math. Arizona State also takes the math proof writing course in place of discrete mathematics. I did not know that combinatorics were that significant. I am trying to pursue a math minor and I was looking into which other courses besides Linear algebra and statistics I should consider. So again thank you so much. This is great knowledge for anyone else wondering the same. I love that in my mechanical engineering degree I can use 3 classes in upper level mathematics. I think I will take the math proofs course and real analysis for the first two and I think I will look more into Numerical analysis because there is two numerical analysis courses that is available fore me as a mechanical engineering major. I’m a little more familiar with PDE’s and complex analysis but I think I should look into numerical analysis before I make the decision what I should use for the third class considering how important that is too. I should note that I am using my electives for 3 math courses and I would take the extra math courses for a math minor. There is a possibility I could double major but I would rather talk to an advisor. I am aware that many people end up with the extra degree with the careful planning of the two degrees.

    @@tmann986 That sounds great! As a heads up, real analysis is useful but moreso just for understanding higher maths. It is pretty useless itself. What I mean is, if you take 3 upper math classes and leave it at that, it is way less likely that you will use it versus a course in PDEs. Now, if you are just curious and you want to learn it, go for it! Im also not saying you wont self study in the future or go to grad school. But some math classes, as interesting as they are, are not so fruitful for most occupations outside of math research. You should hear someone else's input but I think it should be noted. Glad I am of help! Good luck on your degree

    @@thefourthbrotherkaramazov245 haha that makes sense! Real analysis is really out there on the pure mathematics side. I watched blackpenredpen video of him going over an epsilon-delta proof and I just loved it! Again I can go my whole life knowing the calculus series without the E-D proof but I think its cool nonetheless! My calc 3 professor didn’t think it was nesscessary to go over the epsilon delta proof so I went ahead and watched TheMathSorcerers videos on the proofs and did the problems with him and it was really fun! It was really funny to learn these techniques to solve ODE’s just to be told later we have approximation methods since most real applications have more variables (PDE’s) and need the computing power to approximate an answer haha. Your input was gold btw!

    I love "Mathematical Statistics with Applications", but I'd suggest a more rigorous book like "Introduction to Probability" for the first half. Blitzsteins STAT 110 lectures from Harvard (what the book is based off of) are on KZread. It'd more digestible than "Statistical Inference" for self study, but covers the first half of the material and then some very well

In my case, I am studying for a Ph.D. in Machine Learning (Deep Learning), and I have noted some lack of math when I am reading papers. I see everywhere that introductory algebra, calculus, and statistics are needed. But that is not how I see it. I would like your opinion and if you could make a similar video recommending some books.

    College-level textbooks usually have monopoly-dictated (aka "eye-watering") prices. Fortunately, they get gratuitously revised to mainatin sales, (making each class buy new books, not last year's), so second-hand versions should be available inexpensively. Learning to program is only minimally about the languages, (each of which has its special niche; learn to identify and pick the right tool for the job, though any language can be contorted to solve a given problem. Start by learning to write spreadsheets, which are programs in disguise. There are a lot of aspects of programing that often get overlooked, like designing test data, using version control, taking advantage of existing tools to simplify programs, &c. Remember that the greatest productivity tool in programming is plagiarism. DRY; Don't repeat Yourself, and dont repeat anyone else's work if you can use it. The world is awash with bad, redundant code, painfully cranked out by grad students ar huge opportunity cost.

    On your section of Linear Algebra you say that it is "sometimes used"; I work as a computational scientist and do a lot of data science in my job and everything is linear algebra. For example SVD (singular value decomposition) is used for principle component analysis and is also used for least squares estimation. The more linear algebra you know, the better. :D The regression suggestions tie in to the importance of time series methods. I've only used "Nonlinear Time Series analysis" by Kantz and Schreiber but I've seen people recommend "Time Series Analysis" by Hamliton.

    Guys if you want to die quickly in your learning journey to become a data scientist then waste your time in math books. Learning math and spending long time in it is something wrong and waste of time. You should learn Python then learn fundamentals of data science and machine learning by writing python code. You cannot understand data science and machine learning without writing code. After solving some problems in python, you will understand what is needed for this field and you will know which statistics and math topics you need to learn or relearn. Don't waste your time in math before practicing data science and machine learning in Python otherwise you will find yourself lost in a lot of math without any context. You will enjoy math in programming and you don't need advanced math for most of problems.
