A day in the life of Data science student.

Data science student routine

good morning! It is currently 9:30 AM Monday of exam week, so naturally I am filming a video, I think one day in the life of a Detroitist in exam week would be a great opportunity to take you along so that you To see what it really is like to study science at the University of Amsterdam. I am going to do a little install-minute study, so I will show you my notes and the like what is my course at the moment and then I will take you to my example in the city centricampus and show you around us Amsterdam Merchap -Up to go to the store that is open on this campus right now and we are trying to get an Audi from the university, let's wait that you are really sure that I am actually studying properly so my course right now Applies to machine learning and this is the core curriculum for data science in general and I can show you how I took it and what I use to study so these are my notes. I walked out of the Whitepower notebook. So I took it in red. This time and you can certainly like the structure of the Senate, we did linear regression, classification, deep networks, text processing, image analysis some more cross validation and minimal evaluation and we also recommended some expert lecturers in the system and GANsat the End Guns. That came in th e news is to make theported recently sold at Christie's, so it's really cool that we're unrealistically relevant and the new stuff takes note entirely, is based on the lecture of course and I really want to write short, so it seems like I'm eager to study so I actually have one or two pages for each lecture, so it doesn't end so I think I have very little There are graphs and imagestats like I think we are sometimes trying to help understand that they are actually so much like this. Think it was like a scientific paper that I just made a page and Then some of the exercises were done for most machine learning based on mathematics and statistics, I am not the biggest fan of statistics - I know the wrong profession - but I really know that mathematics and economical mathematics that we use in machine learning Are, that's linear algebra, so anything in general with polynomial equations and Matthew do And do a lot of calculus like that which is my favorite. We are going to do a lot of derivatives to calculate the minimum point in a function or thememaxi point, but you need the minimum and we have this thing called canvas. That most of the universities use UAVs and we have all our lectures which usually have videos of them so you can go back and watch the lecture that you did not misunderstand because if you see slides like this So you don't remember what it is and of course I cross-reference it with another onlyCoursera machine learning course and then I just Google if I want to make sure it's happening hundred percent So, I am taking my exam now at 2:00 pm and this condition is going to take hours, I think it is a combination of multiple choice and open people.

 And usually these are the things that you have to explain on your basis, so it is not like memorizing a theorem or the definition of something, as you have basic concepts in your mind, so how do you find it Will understand But you haven't really seen that much before and it's only in the Masters, when I was doing my Bachelor in Data Science, that I slept a little more about remembering and getting down to the basics of the course that Data Science What is the study for? I hope you can hear me that this is a little breeze, we have a case of the classic Dutch weather, it is raining unintentionally today, but it also looks like it is in any other Day I am walking along the canals which are everywhere and the campus i. To go today is idle within walking distance of my house so really good otherwise   I would be taking the bus most people bike you'll see bikes parkedaround literally everywhere but that's not really for me I tried it in my firstyear of my bachelor but I'm really really bad at biking and anywhere I go to I will get there super sweaty and tired and annoyed and that's justnot productive for the rest of my day so I take public transport whenever I canespecially if it's bad weather like this because no one likes biking in the rainalthough the Dutch people will do it they are fearless like nothing's gonnastop them from biking there we go this is the campus my exam is at. It's called Roeterseiland I think I'm sorry for Dutch peoplelistening oh yeah it's really cool above the water and I'm gonna try to find acafeteria and pop-up merch store before my exam so Let's gooo I'm done it's finally over but um yeah Ithink it went okay I hope so I don't want to jinx it but it was a lot thoughit was like 20 pages of exercises it was very very math heavy as well which wasfine but like now my scrap papers look like a mess Ohinsert a clip of it I also found out that the merch store that I wanted to go toto get hoodies is actually not at this building and not open today so good jobIulia now I'm gonna go grocery shopping and get some food so I can cook myselflunch and/or dinner on a student budget and then that's the last thing I have todo today then I am on holiday so I'm excited about that so exam is over dinner is done andthat's it for my day I still have one assignment that is due Wednesdayevening but since it's Monday I'm not gonna start on that yet I'm just gonnaenjoy the fact that I'm done I'm gonna watch Netflix or YouTube and go to sleep early I hope you enjoyed coming along with me today I can also do another video ofmore average day ones courses start again in January and show you around ourlecture halls at our actual campus Science Park which is where you guessedit all the best.
