Got my MSc in Data Science last April. Do I regret, hell no! Do I want to do a PhD, hell yeah! Guys just go for it! Life gets easier when you get educated.
I'm contemplating getting it....are you employed?
Hard to do if you are already work
Do I need to learn maths to get into data science
@@swapnilpatil1673 yes
@@swapnilpatil1673 Yes, you need more than basic math and statistics followed by SQL and Python
I'm in a data science masters program right now. My reason is simple. I work as a data analyst for a major corporation and the only way I can move to a data scientist position is by getting a master's degree and data science or analytics or computer science. I meet all of the other qualifications. My company's paying for the whole thing and I'll be finished by the end of the year.
very nice .. congrats
Company paying 😮😮😮
U so lucky
What was ur undergrad
how to find this job where the company will pay for your MS? How you get it?
@@vikiluch99 Many large companies have it. It is called tuition reimbursement.
@@mcjon77 thanks 🙏
I like how you actually speak like a data scientist😂
Hello .. I’m finishing my electrical engineering degree next year. I have little knowledge about data science but I want to do my masters in data science. What do you advise that I should equip myself with before heading for the masters?
Hi Jay, I wanted to talk you about the Data Science field if its possible from your side. I am from india. I am already working as Data Scientist. I want to know how to grow in this field. I wanted to have some sort of advice in this. If possible. Please
What do you guys think of the University of Virginia's Data Science Masters Program (MSDS)?
A com sci or sci comp MSc works I think
how to find experiences in DS in the USA. They are asking MS to apply on internship//(((
They ask for MS but most of the time they're asking for people that COULD get a MS
@@iqjayfeng why is that? Can the company pay for my MS?
i graduated from bcom recently..i am thinking of doing a msc in data science would that be a really good option for me..i am thinking of going for a coding bootcamp for two months before that tho
Heyy how’s it going…. I’m almost finishing my electrical engineering degree and after that I want to do a boot camp afterwards and then do my masters in data science
@@laurieinsaigha4354 well i mean i am doing acca right now🤣4 more papers to go..Hope you are making the right choice regarding your career tho!
It also depends on what your undergraduate degree was in. If you have an undergraduate degree in computer science or statistics then it probably makes no sense for you to get a master's degree in data science. That undergraduate degree will oftentimes be enough to get the entry level Junior data scientist position. My undergraduate degree is in political science so I had to go the Masters route.
How about Mech engineering?
Thank you for this comment. I'm a history major and I'm was wondering what my chances are as I am currently applying for a data science master. I thought liberal arts literally had no chance of getting in.
what about goals to get to senior and beyond with ML/AI
What basic should I know? What computer skills should I learn? I have no previous computer knowledge. You know, they do not teach any practical skills (just memorization of definitions) in my country. So I am complete beginner like nursery child. Please reply. I want to do masters in data science or AI (maybe in Japan).
But i didn‘t learn shit about data science in my cs bachelor, so why would anybody hire me as an data scientist
Got a CIS undergrad and became a data analyst. I have been regretting my choice of undergrad and didn't like the job. And recently got an NLP data science job with a pretty decent pay bump right after I earn my part-time DS master's. I remember the interviewer made sure I finished my master's, so for me is worth the 30k.
I understand the over-saturated situation, so I am trying to earn a TF certification and other skills like Scala, web dev/scrap, tableau, etc. Going through my master's got me into the habit of learning every night, so doing the master's could be one of my best choices.
p.s I just received my diploma in mail box today woowowo
congrats! I am a CIS undergrad who worked as a data analyst and is currently a Research Developer/Biostatician looking to get into data science. Where did you get your masters?
Is it possible to get a scholarship during MS or RA or TA position?
Same exact boat, thanks for the motivation!
🎉❤
I want to become data scientist should I do msc in data science or in maths ( i kinda like maths and i wanna learn more about higher mathematics )
Im doing a Master of Data Science degree and am changing fields from Teaching English. So yes I do know that I need the masters. However, I'm not expecting to land a DS job out of uni. I'll probably get a DA job and then after a year get into DS or management. I want that 100k a year job
How's it going so far?
@I like that boulder. That is a nice boulder. well. Ironically, I don't have a job yet. Finished mid year and got great grades. I'm back at my old job over the summer (Southern Hemisphere) and volunteering at a Start Up at the moment. I fully intend to get work in the first quarter of next year.
I am in the same position! I am a teacher in China and hoping to switch careers. Do you have any update on your situation?
@Chris Candelo yes. The update is that I finished in June last year and still don't have a regular job in Data. I'm doing some freelance and have done some internships since then. I got a very high score at uni but it doesn't seem to matter. Very demotivating
@@JTProductions3hey man how is it going u got a job? I NEED AN UPDATE FR
just recently came across your page and love the content. I am currently a MS student in data science. I come from a non-technical background, receiving my bachelor's in agriculture. However, I was very fortunate to get a full scholarship and assistantship to my current master's program now. I can honestly say I am only getting my master's because I made a career switch and got a hell of an opportunity. I am currently an intern at a manufacturing company. I love how you talk about salary expectations as well. I was very shocked by the salary ppl are making but I understand from an entry-level perspective and DS being fairly new at this company.
Hey Kristen! Loving your story and glad you made a change into the data world ! I’m a fellow data scientist and small UA-camr and I also make interview / career / data related content if you wanted to check it out ☺️
Hey i am also making career transition to data science from Bsc Biochemistry. Should i also pursue Masters in Data Science or just working on projects n skill will be okay
@@Fly_High.N im also a bsc chemical student should I do masters?
@iqjayfeng I’m currently in my third year of studying bachelors in economics and management however I’m also highly interested in becoming a data analyst or scientist what do you suggest I do and how did you get to this level? I’ll be kindly waiting for your response
Have a daughter who has done degree in data science and I want her to advance to masters.
I would like her to apply for scholarship in Canada or UK . Kindly guide me on how to go about it.
Am a Kenyan resident
I am about to finish my bachelors Digital Marketing, would a Data Science master be a good fit for me?
Getting a bachelor in data analytics definitely and definitely want to get my masters in data science, my employer is gonna pay a big chunk as they are paying for my bachelor’s
Do you perhaps know any university Where one can do Master degree in Data science, with only bachelor's degree?
I have completed my Bachelors in Mathematics but i have no background in computers or programming... So which is better for me? MS in Data Science Vs Ms in IT?
Do u know now? If so what have u decided?
@@eli-ii6765 I've decided to go on with data science
@@jojoouseph4190 Nice
This video a joke. Wont even give you right grammar it that bad
I don't know if anyone told you this but you look a LOT like Anna Akana. You guys could claim you're twins and nobody'd ever contest it.
I don't see it unfortunately
I think you have to compare apples to apples though. Who would you choose between an undergrad with a DS internship and an MS grad with a DS internship? Both have the internship, with the only difference being the degree.
If they both get passed the resume screening - then they're on equal footing for the interview
Hi Jay! Fellow data scientist and small UA-camr across the world in Sydney. Love this video and honesty 😊
Hey, I am going to Australia for my masters in Data Science next year. I totally agree with what he said in this video about a masters degree not being the ultimate gateway to getting a job in DS and Ik, I have to get that internship and practical experience during my two year masters. But I wanted to know, what is the scope and growth of Data Science and tech in general in Australia? Coz I can't seem to find this topic anywhere on UA-cam. A reply would be much appreciated.

I want to start a data science career with no data science background at all. My background is economics and accounting. How do you advise I go about this please?
so what do you do now?
if you have money, time and your path to getting H1b
Which is better MSc in data science or computer science for someone who is not from CS background but intrested in programming?
MS in data science will be much easier I think
Ds might be easier. You can always slowly pick up CS if you really like it by getting a good job then learn by certs
Hi Jay,
I got a bachelor in Business in my country and currently I'm working on my AS degree in computer science in the US. Apparently I can either transfer to a 4-year uni to get a BS degree in Data Science or I just can go for a MS degree because I've already got a bachelor. Some people said that if I don't have a bachelor here in the US, it's hard to get a job. They said the bachelor degree in my country is not valid here so I shouldn't do master without bachelor in the US. Well, I don't buy it. And I'm aware that just a degree cannot secure me a job, just like you said. But I think a MS gives us more opportunities to do research and project than the BS. What's your thoughts on this? Please advise! Thanks in advance!
If you're from outside of the U.S., getting a MS acts as an opportunity to also legally look for a job and a sponsor while you're here for 2+ years.
I am getting a MS in DS just to HOPEFULLY get an internship in DS, sad
I got an applied and computational mathematics degree with CS minor from California university and I cannot land anything atm so I am forced to apply for master programs. I have like the most relevant undergrad degree for these roles too.
Makes sense but worth looking over your CV to see if there is anything you can do in the meantime
Sir, I'm trying to change my career to data science field. Therefore Im trying to do an MSc. I would be honored if you could tell whether the online masters have the same recognition as the residential ones?
In most cases, no.
@@johnnyeatworld Thanks a lot 😇
Georgia tech
@@natcabrera7044 thanks bro
No you are wrong. Yeah u guys can get a job for data science. But u need valuable experiences for this fields. And most companies hire people who got ms degree for data science (75% ms. 25% bachelor). That means u can’t get a data science jobs without ms degree or data science job experience. Plese tell real!! U agree boy?
Quite true that most DS jobs require working exp in data before and a masters (and USA prefers US/CA masters). But if your bachelor is a good CS program I think you would still get a good job still.
@@nilesc9184 true for data analyst roles?
What was your major in undergrad?? Which university ??
I did electrical engineering and took a few data science classes
@@iqjayfeng mad respect for taking ee
@@iqjayfeng can you share which online course you took to enhance skills in data science?
I guess what UR saying is if you have no CS/engnr background it's ok to do the msc in DS. If you have experience + bsc in cs or related it would be somewhat of a waste.
Masters in data science or cs which is better after btech in CSE pls reply......
self-taught software engineer but my undergrad is in business and I want to do cool maths
Thanks for decluttering my mind, about Data Science !
My pleasure!
Whats you're thoughts on MSC DATA SCIENCE in Germany?
No idea but isn't Master's free in Germany?
I have bachelors in Petroleum Engineering from Pakistan but didn't get job. Now i want to change my career to data science or Ai or machine learning engineer. So which masters is best for me to get job in usa. I am planning to do from usa from University of Houston texas.
What's a great way to land a data science internship/gain work experience as a current college IT student with a Business Intelligence track?
So how can a physician incorporate a master of information in data science degree together to serve the society?
Sounds like a question for ChatGPT
Im an Information science student who plans on doing the data science track specialization. Is doing a masters in DS worth it in that case?
Depends on your goals!
Hi, I wish to study master in data science someday. However, is it possible for someone had major not related to computer science or statistic to further master data science with scholarship?
Food science undergrad
I am a MSSQL DBA and have 13 years of experience in this field. Now If i want to get a boost in my career by learning data science ofcouse by doing one year full time course in UK. Will it be worth spending time, money and energy ? Will i get the added advantages of having 13+ years of experience in IT?
Definitely spending money on education in your case is different - I think you're putting in the money as accountability to learn data science.
Hi I have completed my Bachelors in Mathematics and Statistics. Plus completed the IBM Data Science Certification from Coursea. I want to pursue into becoming a data analyst. Should I pursue a postgraduate in Data Science or complete short courses to gain technical skills?
Just got my Graduate Diploma in Data Science. Just worked on projects from Kaggle and DataCamp. Is there any other resources where to get real data?
I want to get into Data Science field. Which degree is better - MS in data science or MS in Computer Science with Data Analytics ?
Computer science with Data Analytics is better
Agreed
I want to get into Data Science field with A Master Degree in Statistics Data Science address.
I have just graduated with BSc in Physics and I work on a lot of projects, I don't feel like I need one but does an MSc increase salary?
It might but so does working for a year somewhere else and gaining experience
What are your thoughts of boot camps/ certifications?
Really depends but if you're an avid learner and motivated - they're great ways to get structured learning for cheap.
I think that is not big value. Please ask reddit. They recommend u valuable boot camp. (Without Neural network. Statustical analysis, spark or hadoop system. The curriculum is failed curriculum in bootcamps. There are alot of fake scam boot camps so u need to research about bootcamp
