Centre for Mathematical Sciences (CSM), Universiti Malaysia Pahang has held a Data Analytics Industrial Talk on 7th June 2022 entitled "5 Secrets that You Need to Know Before Your First Data Science Job". The virtual talk has invited Dr Lau Cher Han, Chief Data Scientist and Chief Operating Officer at LEAD. The two-hour discourse was moderated by Dr Muhammad Na’im Ku Khalif, Senior Lecturer, Centre for Mathematical Sciences, Universiti Malaysia Pahang.
In this session, Dr Lau Cher Han shared the necessity of data science knowledge that he has practised and efforts toward the world of digital work. The need for data and artificial intelligence technologies under Industry 4.0 is likewise a challenge faced by large mainstream companies. As Industry 4.0 gradually moves into the domain of people's everyday lives, many new applications that are impossible to predict today will be developed. In addition, the framework of artificial intelligence, data wrangling and storytelling and visualisation data in PnP (Teaching and Learning) and research activities are also emphasised.
In addition, the speaker also promoted the programmes provided in LEAD, which designs practical-based data science, digital marketing, and web development programs with student support and a passionate community. Likewise, the LEAD is the institute of growth of individuals and companies to understand and equip skillsets for the future that eventually turn into a data company. Dr Lau also brings awareness and knowledge through education, events, and blogging involving students in the field of data science.
