OnlineJanpreet辛格 is an international graduate student in Marist's MSIS program. He is expecting to complete his degree and graduate in May of 2017.
请告诉我们你以前的教育情况,包括专业, degree, 上过大学.
我的专业是理工学士(B. Tech) in Electronics and Communications Engineering (ECE) from Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University, New 新德里,印度.
Tell us about your professional history before coming to Marist.
在来bet亚洲365欢迎投注之前, I worked in Operations for 7 months for a small manufacturing firm in Punjab, India, after working as a Teaching Assistant at an Electronics Engineering college in New Delhi, 在印度待18个月. Since being here in New York, I have worked as a Data Analyst intern for Geodis SCO, in Poughkeepsie.
你的短期和长期职业目标是什么?
我喜欢洞察和管理项目. So, my short-term goal is to work as a Data Scientist and look after multiple projects simultaneously from start to finish and watch them grow as I challenge and push myself out of my comfort zone until I meet the goal.
我的长期目标是改变世界. 我虔诚地相信没有什么想法是微不足道的, and that ideas can leave footprints which inspire millions of people to follow and create a ripple effect. 你只需要用你的梦感染做梦的人.
你为什么选择在bet亚洲365欢迎投注攻读研究生学位?
Marist is a small school and that means better teacher to student interaction, 什么对研究生学习很重要. 另外, 认证和排名, the beautiful Hudson River Valley and its proximity to New York City, were some of the major reasons for Marist to be the perfect fit for me.
Tell us about a project or course that was particularly meaningful to your professional development?
At Marist, I worked on projects for Data Mining, Data Management, and Decision Support Systems. I created an Artificial Neural Network based data model for the ethical dilemma of a self-driving car, predictive models for prices of items in New York City based on R, 以及一个基于线索触发动机的机器学习模型. I want to emphasize that I made the effort of going outside of the curriculum of the class to meet the goals in all three projects. These three projects were meaningful to me because I challenged my knowledge and skills with them and went ahead to learn something new. 在第一个项目之后, I knew I would want to do it to all my future projects because learning something new and creating results is the only fun you can ever produce from a project.
Tell us about career development opportunities you have participated in through Marist.
我和我的教授们关系很好. I am proud of these because I believe these relationships will last long after graduation. I’m a very communicative and friendly person, so networking is not at all difficult for me. In fact, I was the first international graduate student in the junior senate in the Students Government Association (Thanks to Brandon Lee Heard) on campus. bet亚洲365欢迎投注帮助我塑造了自己的个性. 作为一个国际研究生, 我在校园里很难交到朋友, 我去了不同的俱乐部, 我参加了《bet亚洲365欢迎投注》和《bet亚洲365欢迎投注》的试镜, 我开始出现在法律预科俱乐部, SEED, 亚洲联盟, BSU, 和ARCO的全体会议, 尽管我没有得到任何优先点. The whole idea was to keep showing up again and again until people recognize you, and I ended up doing Spoken Word Poetry for a couple of clubs and on MCTV’s Later Tonight Show, and so quite a handful of students have come to know me on-campus. This whole experience broke the shell I was in as an international Indian student and helped me overcome the cultural shock tremendously. I've met some incredible people and I made some good friendships. I worked as a Teaching Assistant for Professor Christopher Algozzine for a while and he is not only a great mentor but a very good friend to me. He's advised me wisely on my career decisions and helped me when I was in doubt. 在就业服务方面, I used Marist’s Resume development and Mock-interview services and they also helped me a great deal. Marist gave me opportunities to work as a Tutor on campus which helped me connect with other students and a Technical Consultant for the Academic Technology (Thanks to Dede Hourican) which was my first interaction with American work culture. 然后我也是迎新会的领导! And last but not the least the Center for Multicultural Affairs (Thanks to Karen Tomkins) always had my back in regards to events related to my culture or community.
All in all, I made many connections at Marist and I hope to carry them forward with me wherever I go.
What advice would you give to other international students considering a graduate degree at Marist?
Marist offers a great education at low cost and is very flexible with the curriculum. The professors are very helpful and the community is supportive. 交很多朋友,参与校园活动. Get to know your classmates and never lose hope, you will not get this time again. I know a lot of students will come to Marist with the biggest dreams. 我想告诉他们,这并不容易, but studying responsibly and getting a good grade will help you after graduation. 梦想会成真,永远不要停止相信自己.
If you took an online class or had online learning as part of a regular course, tell us about your experiences – any tips or suggestions to pass along to future students?
我上了五门在线课程. Here’s what I’ve learned from them: always keep up with the weekly announcements, 论坛一开放就在论坛上发帖, 一定要引用你的参考资料, 不要抄其他同学的, 在小组项目中充分利用在线共享工具, 教授们也很有帮助, so, 有疑问的时候就问.
请随时提供更多的意见:
谢谢你给我这个机会来分享我的想法. I wish future students good luck and want to remind them to never hesitate to step up and make a change.
