How to Transition from Engineering to Data Science | by Dan Pietrow | Nov, 2024

Hello there,

I typically get requested about my transition from engineering to information science. Having made the leap, I’ve realized what works (and what doesn’t) and I believed it might be of worth to share my perception to hopefully prevent a whole lot of time.

I’ve a Grasp’s diploma in Engineering (Materials Science) and an Engineering Doctorate. I’m self-taught in information science and have been training it for five years. Whether or not you’re seeking to:

• Transition into a knowledge function
• Leverage information science information to your engineering work
• Or study these expertise out of curiosity

…this information is for you. It’s based mostly on my journey and can make it easier to navigate your transition into the world of AI and information science with confidence.

Engineers have all of the instruments to be nice machine studying practitioners. They’re downside solvers, and so they are typically sensible. They will minimize by means of the noise and leverage what already works to construct an answer to an issue. With out getting slowed down making an attempt to code a brand new neural community from scratch.
