Coming from a career with a non-technical background, I never thought I would be able to retool myself into an AI engineer capable of designing complex solutions using AI. MITB has been an enabler for me to implement AI solutions to real-world problems and venture into the exciting world of Data Science and AI. While in the program, you will learn from professors who are both brilliant and passionate about the field. They will keep you engaged and always challenge you in reaching the next level by guiding you along the way.
One thing that worked really well for me during my time at MITB was the freedom to explore and choose the path I was most interested in. I started out thinking FinTech was the right choice for me, but ultimately ended up in AI realising this is the space I am most passionate about. This was only possible because I had the option to try out the different courses from the different tracks.
The constant drive of MITB to always teach the most cutting-edge theories, and at the same time instilling in the students the ability to keep themselves up-to-date even after graduation has been a game-changer for my career. If you do decide to embark on the MITB journey, my advice is to give it your all as what you get in return would be nothing short of spectacular. Indeed, the journey will be very hard, but anything worth doing always is.
