Re: Career Question: Self Study vs MS w/Thesis vs PhD

Hi Sam, 

I have the exact same concern. I live in San Jose, CA and would like
to pursue further education in Neural Networks, Machine Learning, Data
Mining, etc. but don't even know of any courses around that would
offer that.

My suggestion for you would be to take courses instead of doing a full
degree. I say that because I think there are many opportunites out
there that would provide you the opportunity to learn the technology
without a full time commitment. It is always a good idea to be cost
conscious.

Let me know if you find out about any interesting programs -- perhaps
there would be a distant learning program that I can pursue.
