  • Welcome to a day in my life as a Masters Student at The University of Cambridge! I'm doing a one year MPhil in Machine Learning and Machine Intelligence, based in the Engineering Department. I'm a member of Hughes Hall, one of the 32 Colleges that make up Cambridge University.
    We start out the day with early morning rowing, move on to an honest day's work in the lab, and finish things off punting with friends on the River Cam!

      @@globalkiwis I'm now doing an MPhil in education at Cambridge. Homerton (my college) is not far from Hughes' Hall. I rowed for a bit too. It's all good fun. Looking forward to see what's next with you two. cheers. P.S. You two have gotten some of the best shots of cambridge.

    Yeah Hughes!
    As someone who graduated three days ago, and who also rowed for 3 years (and bouldered) at Cambridge, this is already a fantastically nostalgic vid!

      Sounds like its a shame we didn't cross paths! Are you in Cam over summer at all?

      @@globalkiwis hey, thanks so much! Lovely of you. I just recently got into making videos to preserve some of the memories of my final month in Cambridge - it's a hell of a lot of fun! Hoping to make some more vids soon!
      Also, shame we didn't! I know the Hughes Captain quite well and so loved how well you guys did in Bumps. Unfortunately I'm not in Cam until September/October again at earliest - I'm off to Bristol to start work very soon instead!

    Funny enough I will be starting the same course (MPhil MLMI) this October!
    It's nice to see we get our own study room in the Engineering Library :)

    Thanks for posting this video! I'll be joining Cambridge for an MPhil in a related field this October, and this is such a fascinating glimpse into MPhil life! I'm especially looking forward to trying out some rowing.
    How would you say your schedule would differ during the taught part of the course? Did you have any issues settling in?
    Also super random, but are you using an M1 Mac to run models? I heard that you have to do some weird set up to get some popular ml libraries working on the new Apple CPUs.

    • @globalkiwis
      @globalkiwis  Год назад +1

      Thanks for your support!
      The workload was a bit different in the taught section because for the dissertation section you manage your own workload. The more work you put in the more you get out etc, but for the taught part you don't have as much control as you have exams, assignment deadlines etc.
      And no, not a Mac M1 so didn't have to deal with any of that!

      Unfortunately not! A lot of Cambridge doesn't have bicycle lanes, and there are plenty of impatient drivers too!

      Hi Raguram! I did my undergrad in CS and Applied Physics, but it's fairly flexible. The main thing is having a strong background in statistics and math :)
