So my semester is just about done. I am finished with my SQL class, and am awaiting the final grades in my International Relations class. I finished my Future Cities class on EDX as well. Whew! Now I can graduate!
In related news, I finished a Global Health class and an Epidemiology class online. These were not officially graded, being work-at-your-own pace classes, but I scored an A in each of them.
So, school done, what next? Well, I am working on continuing to burnish my computer skills – Python and R, both very big languages in Data Science. For the spring, I am signed up for a class for R and also a class on how to use programming to do linear algebra – this will be in Python.
At this point, I think my future direction may lie in Computational Epidemiology.
In addition, I am reading. As always, I will post a list of the books I read this year in January. Right now, I am reading a book on the history of the number Zero, and a book on Topology. For fun, I have been reading HALO books. I’ve never really played the game but it’s a cool setting.
Anyway, more later!
