YASMEEN NATASHA BINTI HAFIZ SHAHREL's Reflection
I would like to express my gratitude and appreciation towards my lecturer, Dr. Izyan Izzati for your valuable guidance throughout this whole semester. I am so thankful to have Dr. Izyan as my lecturer because she has been very helpful and she always makes sure that we understand the topics discussed in class.
Even though there were lots of assignment that were assigned to us, we were able to finish our tasks well with Dr. Izyan's guidance. The topics that we learned in class was also taught by Dr. Izyan in detail and we were able to gain better understanding of the topics, compared to when we first enter the semester.
I would also like to thank Dr. Izyan for giving your full effort in guiding me and my team during the completion of our project.
In my opinion, this subject has definitely contributed to my knowledge on information systems and technology, as well as the emerging trends of IT. During the beginning of the semester, I have learned how to distinguish the components of information systems and technology.
Throughout the semester, I have attended several industrial talks on different topics related to this subject. The talks were given by many successful people working in the industry. They have shared their insights on the industry and have also generously shared their experiences and gave some useful advices to us.
The assignments that were assigned to us have also helped me improve my understanding of information systems and technology. For example, at the beginning of the semester, I barely have the knowledge of cloud computing but after finishing my assignments and attending talks as well as completing my AWS course, I can confidently say that I have way better understanding than before.
All in all, this subject is essential in order for me to pursue my dream working in the tech industry.
I believe that I need to put a lot of work into improving my potential in the industry.
First of all, I need to be clear of my goals. I feel like the more precise my goals are, the more easier it is for me to achieve them.
I will also need to improve my quality of work and to do that, I will have to push myself to learn new things everyday as knowledge is the key to everything. Attending industrial talks is one of the great ways for me to expand my knowledge on the industry.
Surrounding myself with people who have had experiences in the industry is also crucial in order for me to improve myself. Hearing their advices will help me become more aware of what I need to work on more.
As a Data Engineering student, my goal is of course to work in a big company where I can live my dream as a Data Scientist. The reason why I chose this as my career goal is because of my interest in Computer Science and also I believe that there will be huge opportunities available.
As for my short-term goal, I am just hoping I can pass my first semester with flying colours. I am currently working on completing all of my assignments and studying for final exams.
I will try my best to overcome any challenges during my study journey so that I can successfully graduate with a degree in Data Engineering.
