Alumni of University of Essex matchfunded £1,000
By
Hamza Rubbani
Melbourne, Australia
I am aiming to raise £2000 for my accommodation fees and public transportation (to and from the business) for a once in a lifetime opportunity to intern abroad in Melbourne, Australia, for a professional organisation. If achieved, this will expose me to the nature of how a business operates, whilst gaining the skills and practical knowledge needed to work in a professional organisation in the future.
Who am I?
My name is Hamza Rubbani and I am a student at the University of Essex. I am in my 1st year studying Data Science and Analytics, and live in the up and coming town of Reading, Berkshire.
YOUNG, AMBITIOUS AND DETERMINED
"Without big data analytics, companies are blind and deaf, wandering out onto the Web like deer on a freeway."
Geoffrey Moore, Author of Crossing the Chasm & Inside the Tornado
All businesses have extensive amounts of data, stagnant and building up dust. The future of the global society will rely heavily on this data, and as companies store more information they will need someone to analyse it. Once the analysis is complete, the Data Analyst would meet directors or CEO's of the company to discuss findings on how to find hidden opportunities (e.g. improve sales) based on that data. I came to know of data management 2 years ago, and have been interested in the new field of study so much that I want to make a career of it.
This internship in Melbourne (a city known for its technological advances) could be a springboard to getting myself on to the Graduate ladder, especially as a 1st year student. Gaining experience analysing data in a professional environment is beneficial to my education and knowledge.
The demand for Data Analysts in the modern era is very high, but the supply is limited since the field is so new - help me be a promising graduate in the Data Industry in the future by donating towards my internship! Grateful for any donation!
If the minimum target is raised, here is where it will go:
