In this episode, I'm excited to chat with Ping, this year's recipient of the SMDE Scholarship at Edinburgh Napier University! Ping is now about six months into the MSc Data Engineering Programme, and we are lucky to get some of his feedback on how it is going for him, what tools and techniques he is using right now, and lots of other interesting information. If you are considering a degree in data, watching this chat might help you to see how things get started, why you might want to do a degree like this, what benefits you can get from a degree, and what challenges you might encounter. If you have additional questions, make sure to put those in the comment section below!
