Hello there,

I'm a graduate student enrolled in a Data Science program. Right now I am trying to find an internship in Data Science. However, it has been difficult because I have only been through one quarter(my school uses the quarter system) of my first year.

I got my BS in Earth Science. I did not come from a Math or CS background so that is not really helping me.

In addition, I did not have a data-related job after getting my BS so I do not have relevant work experience either.

I want to gain some valuable experience but I do not feel qualified for many Data Science internships.

What advice and suggestions do you guys have for me? I do not want to be one of those people that graduated without an internship but I don't feel qualified for internships until I graduate.

I am at a loss here. Any advice and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
