I see.
Did you join any societies or go to any events TreeofLife? I'm guessing there isn't a freshers for postgrads?
Did you look at any rankings for unis at all or just mainly look at the funding? feel like i need to focus in on specific areas to research, rather than doing a broad general search?
That's a good point. Suppose that will help narrow my search down a bit. Anyone had any issues making new friends or anything not being an undergrad student at uni? Quite keen to go somewhere where i can still get involved with stuff (if i have the time!)
Hey TreeofLife thanks for your reply. I think I will probably end up in the UK - it'll make this decision a lot easier.
I feel like data science will be a useful masters to have, but need to start checking out where does scholarships and funding. Would you have done your MSc if it wasnt funded do you think?
This is a way harder decision to make than my undergrad!
Thanks Kikothedog. Interested to see what others think to help me make this decision!
Hey, so I'm about to enter my final undergraduate year, where I'm currently studying Mathematics. I didn't choose the integrated masters path, so now i'm starting to think ahead to what i'm going to do when that scary day of finishing uni comes around. I kinda think i've figured out if i'm going to do a masters that i'd like to home in on data science, but i've still got time to change my mind. The biggest decision for me is picking where to go! I have no idea. Do I even stay in the UK or go overseas? There's so many programmes to choose from as well. Just wondering how everyone else decided where to pick? I suppose I've got loads of free time at the moment to go and visit places and check them out. Help appreciated!
