Data Scientists Career Talk: From Academia to Industry
I gave this talk at AICamp on Sep 24, 2021.
In this talk, I shared my own experience transitioning from academia to the tech industry, from neuroscience to AI. I also discussed different types of data scientists and their career paths.

Tbh i think master is better for starting r&d career in industry. The thing is if it's not chemical pharmaceutical but biomedicine or biotech, to be fair u need to ph.d not enough master.. Cuz there's lots of subtle and delicate factors to consider for research and study.. really complicating. But the compensation and secure job is not enough and so hard..
If you dont know what to do after university by all means be a teacher. Even if its just for your 20s. However, the pay thing is a huge stop for a lot of people and even more so for certain subjects. For example, Im have PhD in industrial mathematics. My day rate is £1500 doing freelance consulting. Why would i want to be a high school maths teacher for £24k a year? And even if i wasnt a PhD, even with just a bachelors degree, there are job roles starting at £35-50k/year with less hours and more benefits. This is why the UK has a shortage of mathematicians and even more so why there are shortages of maths students. We now have non maths specialists teaching mathematics in high school.
Finally a good video on youtube explaining how stupid is the career pathway of phds. And I am saying this as a PhD in Biotech. If I could go back in time I would go to medicine. Or even just get a bachelor and an MBA. You'd get far more career options for higher pay with less experience needed.
Wow, such a superb video sharing your job application trajectory! Thank you!
Thank you for sharing your video. I have found your videos helpful thus far as I am also a PhD student considering leaving Academia eventually. I look forward to watching more contents from you.
Really amazing recommendations and share base on finer career categories for PhDs, thank you Ju❤
Please tell us about salary in pharma and biotech companies after phd
I don't have the latest number because I don't work in pharma.
Please can I have your LinkedIn, I wanna get in touch with you, 可以把你的LinkedIn 分享一下吗?
Is there away to contact you?
Very important advices and recommendations for someone during their path of PhD and their visions in industry and not academia. Thank you.
Is it good to contact PI ‘s directly for the career opportunity ?
I think so. But they may be too busy to reply. I'd also contact people working for the PI, such as technicians, postdoc, grad students.
I've never commented on a video before, but yours was very helpful. Thank you so much for sharing your journey and wishing you all the best!
👍🏻
Thank you so much for this video! As I am preparing to pursue a doctorate degree, I have realized my interest towards industry and was looking for some useful information. This has giving me more perspective as to the steps that I should take and the aspects I must consider. Once again, thank you!
Thanks for the personal sharing.
又见学姐👍🏻
you are indeed a good story teller tho!❣
Glad you’re sharing these valuable experiences. All the best to your career!
that cat hop at 4:17 😻
I feel really lucky to see your video and blog at this point of my life. I am also a neuroscience PhD and almost experiencing the same thing as you. Such a competing environment makes me feel little hope for even becoming a PI in the future. I have another 1 year to graduate and I am also preparing for a data scientist! Your story is very inspiring! Thanks for sharing!
Phd is absolutely not required to be admin at a university. Some have no degree at all!
很棒, STEM researcher 是应该多了解一点公共政策制定
Great video! I’m also from China and got my PhD recently. Administrators def helped so much! I also started a channel sharing my experience on starting an alternative career. Thanks so much for sharing yours!
Great video many thanks. Packed full of useful information.
hi Ju, I read your article online and now came to your channel. Thank you for all your sharing with your experiences which are very useful. I have similar experience like you. Bachelor major in chemistry but I run away from chemistry and academic after grad. Now I am an Engineer and doing data analysis related jobs. Also would like to explore opportunity in data science in near future. Hope you can keep sharing your learning and feeling for this area and we can communicate under your videos :)
It's super helpful for someone struggling with different paths in the pharm/biotech industry and how to prepare for all these career paths❤️!
很有益的视频,可以组织TED circle或者clubhouse组织一些交流活动in English的话,应该是很好的互相锻炼的环境
最近刚开始用clubhouse,还不太熟悉
感谢师姐分享!
谢谢师姐分享
Fan here!! Thanks for that post, I basically started a new life lol. It's not about what we had chosen before, it's about what might potentially interest a being for a really long time.
谢谢师姐的分享,希望师姐分享更多的视频指路
Hey, thaks for the insight, I find myself in a similar position (finishing my phd) and evaluating my future. Close to the end of the video 17:30 you mention that consulting was listed as not recommended for your personality. Which site/program/source did you use to get that kind of association between your personality and careers? Thanks!!
@@juyangtech946 thanks!
Thank you for updating this. I like your blog post!It is helpful for a lot phds
Hi Ju, What specifically about consulting did you feel that didn't fit with your personality? Thank you
说的太好了
Just checked your channel ten minutes ago, then Bingo! Here it is! Nice piece!
节目做得潇洒自如。帅!👍
多谢支持!
I am suffering the same problem with you right now. I am going to do that test as you mentioned.
Very interesting and helpful! wait for your introduction of data analytic path!
Thank you for sharing your honest experience and thoughts.
都是好问题。😈
Ju说得特别好。👻 邪门的是我订阅本频道至少四次,终于是在UA-cam的App里订阅成功了,啊哈哈!
Hi! I'm really excited that you started a youtube channel! I've been following your blog online a while ago and it's really helpful. If you could talk about PhD path to data science, with emphesis as an international student, that would be great! I'm currently a phd student in neuroscience, and am starting thinking about my career after phd.
Thanks! Yes I will talk about data science later, probably in late December or January. Stay tuned!
Thank you for sharing! It is really helpful after reading your blog
I am very excited to see that you have opened your own channel. As a data science enthusiast, I have been following your blog for a while! Your blog post gave me a lot of inspiration. Thank you!
Awesome. Thanks for sharing!
We shared a similar career transitioning experience. I really like your deep thought and motivation!
I will get my Phd in non-cs field and non-statistics, non-math field, I wanna become a mle, but it seems that it's extremely difficult to get a job without any publication related to ml and any research experience in ml, in this case, do you have any suggestions for me? thanks
If you are looking for MLE, I'd recommend you start with being a software engineer (SWE) if you don't have strong math background. A lot of the MLE's work is coding and engineering. There are more SWE positions than MLE. You certainly don't need publications and research experience to become a MLE or SWE. But you will need publications for research scientist positions in tech. I'll talk more about this in later videos.
