Did you know that a graduate from Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM) is currently dedicating her life to increase data literacy and empowering Malaysian youths with data skills? Imagine trying to match hundreds and thousands of job opportunities to potential graduates. Sharala Axryd, is a superwoman. In fact, she was listed as one of the Strong Women In IT in 2021. She founded the Centre for Applied Data Science (CADS), an ecosystem that nurtures a new generation of data scientists, professionals, and practitioners.
I'm Studying (INSERT COURSE), Can I Be in This Field?
The biggest misconception for students is they need to quit or drop out if they want to pursue other fields. With CADS, you can learn these skills, get certified, and also get access to job opportunities (full-time and internship) while you are completing your current course. In fact, it would be a huge advantage to you because, within all industries, there are data-related job opportunities. From GLCs like Petronas to MNCs like Sunway Group, there is an increase in openings for data-related positions. It is a future skill that soon will be essential in the job market.
