Hi Fam, I am on a H1B right now and have <2 YOE working as a software engineer. I will be starting with a FANG soon. I did my masters in Computer Science with no specialization and don’t have many professors that I can reach out to since I just studied and took exams just toget my degree. I am really interested in Computer Science and certain fields in it really fascinate me. i do a lot of reading when I find time. Is there a way that I can get into a PhD program at a good school ? How can I go about it ? All this because, I really want to contribute something to Computer Science. I want to go down into it in depth. Thanks
Did you apply to any programs? Apply. Many deadlines are in January
Try emailing professors directly to see if they are interested in working with you. You can reach out to any professor as long as you find their email address. Check their websites.
Just apply dude quit overthinking it
Think hard before committing to PhD. It's no joke. It's a lot of time and effort. Evaluate ROE on it before committing.
