I am creating this topic at the request of forum users.
I will be glad if this information and my experience will help you.
Ask your questions.
In September 2024, I enrolled into Walsh College's Doctor of Business Administration in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning.
The program is a collaboration of Walsh College and GreatLearning.
https://www.mygreatlearning.com/dba-aiml-online
The admission process was simple and straightforward. 2-3 phone calls, verification of diplomas and an entrance fee of 1000.
The program costs 12500$. I can provide a referral link with a discount.
Here is an example for the first part of the doctoral program.
If you are interested in other programs, please contact me, I will send a link specifically for you.
The program is designed for three years.
As a result, you will receive three diplomas:
PG Diploma in AIML from Texas University
MS in AIML from Walsh
DBA from Walsh
I enrolled in September. The studies were supposed to start in January, but were postponed for a month and started in February.
By February, we had to independently complete preparatory courses at the LMS. It were 7 ungraded courses.
The courses were about Python and an introduction to artificial intelligence.
Sometimes there were online webinars. Where the theory was explained, and you could ask questions.
The PGP began in February. It will continue until September.
Then, until the end of the year, there will be a bridge program from Great Learning.
The second year is devoted to the master's program. The third is devoted to the doctoral courses and dissertation.
The doctoral part will include a mandatory oral general examination.
So it's not just about checking a box, this is real academic education.
PGP consists of 7 modules or courses.
A typical module lasts 4 weeks.
Each week, there are videos and texts for learning in the LMS. Materials are from the University of Texas and Great Learnings. Also, each section ends with an ungraded quiz. Materials and quizzes are optional and do not affect progress.
There is a two-hour webinar on Saturday. The first part explains the theory for the week. The second part is dedicated to practice and live coding. The webinar is hosted by a lecturer from Great Learnings.
Attendance at the webinar is mandatory. If you miss it, you need to watch the recording. The percentage of webinars watched affects the grade.
There is a mandatory graded quiz at the end of the week. 10 questions, 40 minutes. The result affects the grade.
If you miss the deadline for a good reason, you need to ask the program advisor for an extension. They usually respond quickly and are ready to help.
There is a mandatory project at the end of the module. It contributes the most to the final grade.
There are two options for completing the project. The project is done on a Jupiter notebook.
The business path requires minimal programming. The task is almost solved, you just need to add a few variables or lines of code. The result obtained needs to be analyzed, and a presentation prepared.
The programming path requires independent problem-solving, but no presentation is required.
You can choose a convenient path for each project.
There may or may not be a break between modules.
Hackathons are held during the holiday breakі. They are voluntary and not graded. But they are very interesting.
That's all for now.
At this point, I've passed Python - Foundations, Machine Learning, Advanced Machine Learning, Introduction To Neural Networks, Natural Language Processing with Generative AI.
The modules are not very theoretically and mathematically heavy. They are more focused on studying the corresponding Python libraries and practice. In comparison, the courses from MIT were much more theoretically difficult and almost did not include practice.

Doctoral Degree Advice |

I am currently a full-time lecturer and I need a doctoral degree to move in to an assistant professor (tenure track) role. I am looking for either a PhD in Information Systems, IT, CompSci or maybe a DBA with a focus on Information Systems. I mainly teach CompSci courses now but have taught some IT related courses in the Business school on campus. I have a BA in CompSci, MBA, and MS in IT.
I would need the program to be low residency or online. Any advice or suggestions? If I were to move from my current school I would only long at teaching positions or mainly teaching schools.
NOTE: For low residency I would need it to be in the midwest area of the US.

Need Bio1 course w/ Lab, online, RA credit, accredited, for science majors. Options? |

I need a Biology 1 course that must be:
- Not introductory, no intro, of human concerns, basics, etc. Must be legit Biology 1.
- Needs to have included LAB. This means the lab is part of the class, not a 1 credit separate lab class.
- Part of a Bio degree. It cannot be a class that is offered but not part of an actual Bio degree unless it says something like "For science majors" and is a series numbered course like 1 -> 2.
- Cannot be ACE
- Cannot be CLEP
- Needs to be online
- RA credit from a regionally accredited university
- Cannot be correspondence. It has to have teacher feedback, grading, interaction. Things like ASU universal learner are disqualified.
- Must be for science majors.
Any options? LOL. Really narrowing myself down here. This is for the the patent bar. I need a this one course to sit for the patent bar. I have figured out things that will work for everything else.

MAT 140 + Dyscalculia ? |

Hey guys,
I’m in the BLS program at UMPI and really struggling with MAT 140. I have dyscalculia and math has always been hard for me, but this class is just… brutal. I’m honestly embarrassed because I’m trying so hard and still not getting it.
I also heard PCJ 315 is even worse?? I’m literally so stressed.
Is there any way to skip MAT 140 by transferring in a Sophia class like College Algebra or Calculus? Can I just take another UL instead?
Any advice would help. I don’t wanna fall behind

At crossroads with my degree journey |

Hi, I'm new here and I'll try to keep it as short as possible for everyone's convenience because I could really use some helpful guidance as after reading many valuable insights here.
Background information: I did UK A levels back in 2023, and got a SAT score of 1450+. All the local unis didn't accept me. Going foreign (Europe and even the US with USM) was doable but very severe family issues occured leading me to stay with them and take back to back gap years. Studying STEM's been a clear passion of mine. I felt like I couldn't remain degree-less no matter what so few months started looking into online options. I dream of immigration into a Western country via further education/job one day so felt like going for one of the most in-demand degrees that'd make it easier would be the best option. Engineering felt like the perfect fit for that criteria at the time so I started researching for it primarly.
Why I'm at the crossroads: I narrowed it down to two options: North Dakota State University's online Electrical Engineering degree (with then the total estimated cost of 37K) and Kennesaw State University's Software Engineering degree (total est cost of 28K USD). Software's extreme saturation scared me away so I ended up opting for NDSU's EE program. I spent months and around 300$ just to get admitted because it takes that much to send my A level documents to an US institution. Now just today, NDSU updated their fees and policies. All the estimated figures they've given me before were completely off. I am not even eligible for a tuition cap anymore. It went from being around 37K USD to 60K USD in total. I genuinely can't afford that at all.
I've never felt so defeated in my life. I finally felt like I figured out my education path and everything was gonna be way up. They apologized for such a mishap but I feel so down and lost now. Should I take my first semester at NDSU (will cost me around a whooping 8K) and then transfer to KSU? Should I just drop out and wait for KSU's spring semester? Should I simply opt out of NDSU now, take credits from Study.com/Sophia.org and transfer them into SNHU's CS program and get a CS degree for much cheaper? I just don't know where and how to proceed forward. I feel like there's way too many pathways from here onwards. All I want is a respected, traditional but cheap education.
One idea that comes to my mind is completing a fast tracked CS degree and then going for an online EE degree completion (Stony Brook or USI for one) but that one just seems like such a time consuming and a tricky path. With all honesty, I personally find both CS and EE equally interesting and would love to be able to explore both the fields but always put CS on a lower priority because everyone advises against it. I'm just so disappointed that I don't even understand my own passion right now. The only thing I remember is that I just loved studying Maths, Physics, Chemistry, and Biology in my entire education path thus far.
TLDR version just in case; Put hopes on NDSU. Turned out to be way more expensive and out of league. Feel like I've wasted so much time. No clue how and where to proceed forward.
Your Location: Pakistan/Saudi Arabia
Your Age: 22 (soon turning 23)
What kind of degree do you want?: Accrediated engineering/CS. I've been using ABET as the standard thus far but I'm not sure if that's the right one.
Current Regional Accredited Credits: To be decided (if I do my first semester at NDSU, it'd be COMM 110 Public Speaking, HNES 100 Wellness and Fitness, MATH 103 and 105 (College Algebra + Trignometry), and CHEM 121 (Intro to Chem))
Current ACE, CLEP, or NCCRS Credits: Open to it if needed
Any certifications or military experience?: No
Budget: Ideally around 35K USD if engineering, below 30K USD if CS.
Commitments: I have no work commitments.
Dedicated time to study: I will definitely and probably study like a full time student does so probably around 30-40 hours per week.
Timeline: No time limit. Preferably 3-4 years because I deep down have an insecurity that I'm already behind others so much.
