My interest in Data analytics had piqued from a Business Intelligence class I took during my Bachelor's studies when my professor illustrated how we can use a large amount of unstructured data to draw useful insights that aid effective and informed decision making. The idea that Data science can function as a novel approach to solving complex business problems or a way to reveal new opportunities for businesses enthralled me greatly. Such first insight into how computer engineers approach real-world problems incited me to delve deeper into the field and led me to pursue MITB Analytics program at SMU.
