GRAD ECHO

Thank you so much sir.

I completed my MS in Computer Science without a research thesis. I now want to pursue a PhD in Computer Science and become a researcher who makes a significant impact on society. My research interest lies at the intersection of machine learning applications in healthcare. How can I start this journey? Is it possible to begin now, or should I consider doing master's degree again?

• I learnt many interesting algorithms during my Master's like SVM and CNN

• I also have good experience of Python. I can implement these algorithms to solve real world problems.

When you apply for graduate school, the recommendation letter is one of the important documents you must have. I can share my experience: I have visited 12 professors of Computer Science from my last two universities. First of all, they all told me (and others) that they are busy, saying things like "come tomorrow" or "come the day after tomorrow." All they do is tell us to go to the admission section, bring the format, and they will sign it. No professor is ready to give us the recommendation letter that we want. How should one deal with this situation?
