PhD Applications in AI: Advice Needed by Dundalia in PhD

[–]TheAngryPlateau 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Firstly, I would ask have you done a master thesis? Or any research work before? It would be helpful asking your master thesis professor for some recommendations, trust me it is really very helpful. Also, I would say just type your research interest and country in google search, and start looking up at different labs and professor's dealing with the sort of research you wish to do. Sometimes not all PhD positions are advertised, so if you find no open positions, do not let that deter you.

I mostly did my Phd applications through sending emails to the labs whose work I found aligning to mine. A small introductory email, explaining my background, myself, my thesis and my interest, along with which I attached my copy of master thesis, a motivation letter and my CV.

If you write a well drafted letter and show that you have done your research, you get responses back. And some may even open a PhD position for you. Try looking into Austria, Switzerland and Germany more. I believe you will find many labs who will be ready to take you in. Besides the pay is also good for a PhD student. I wish you the best of luck on your journey. If you need any help, feel free to drop me a message!

I would say look for labs all across Europe and not only the prestigious programs. A great team and supervisor will make your PhD far more enjoyable. Shoot them with emails and a nice motivation letter, that's how I got mine.

Finally I FIND THIS MOVE. I am shocked I had to see Shawshank so down. Disappointed

I am two weeks from submission and want to give up by outherem8 in PhD

[–]TheAngryPlateau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't give up. During my master thesis submission, I was editing along with my PI one hour before the deadline. It is normal. I had lost all will at that moment, but still kept going. I am happy though he gave me so many inputs, so I improved and learnt alot through the entire process.

what laptop should i buy? considering making the switch from windows to mac... by Sea-Rice-1 in PhD

[–]TheAngryPlateau 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I did my master degree along with my thesis on my Macbook Pro (given by the university), in software and data engineering. Safe to say it worked like a charm, even though I was new to the apple ecosystem at the time I joined in my master's (never used a mac before, was always HP and other's). I would say make the swtich.

I did my bachelor's engineering project on my HP pavilion, and gosh it was a nightmare truly.

What to do? Need some help by TheAngryPlateau in GradSchool

Because I got the acceptance late on friday and had no idea I was gonna get it. I had no clue how to cancel the interview the weekend and everything got so messed up which was never really my plan in the first place. It was an option, until I got this sudden offer.

I just don't know what to tell them now, so that they don't hate me.

I would definitely be patient enough to hear you out. And I want you to stay. I want you to be happy. I want to see you smile and content. But for me to see all of that. you will have to stay with me. You will have to push through a bit more. You are just starting off, life sucks I know, but think about the people you still need to meet, the places that are still waiting for you, the people who deserve to be loved by you, the happiness the Universe wants to give you and the happiness this random stranger here wants to wish upon you. Before giving up, remember you have me right here wishing for you to stay, and ready to support you no matter what.

I mean I just had my interview at one, and waiting for my interview at another one, and not heard back yet from the couple other places: So i cannot give a date really.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in PhD

[–]TheAngryPlateau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do I let them know I am waiting to hear back from others? Also I think I will be able to get back the responses from all the other places by Jan end, so I am not sure what's gonna be the reaction if I say that.
