Week 5 Learning Journal

 What have I learned this week?

    I've learned to lead initiatives more often and helping guide my teammates at work and in a group setting for my classes.

Additionally, many students have the same view as me as far as grad school goes. We all think it heavily depends on the subject and many people definitely have time to pursue one as most of them offer online courses.

The 3 capstone projects I think would be a good idea to pursue?

    EzDashboard, this catches my attention as I see the use for this at work. It works similarly to prometheus and grafana(which are data ingestion tools that show infrastructure/security issues)

    Traffic tracer, this is another one. This application uses merchants cameras to gather foot traffic. This could be useful for accidents on the road. Or.. crimes?

    Date and be safe, this is actually quite huge. Many dating sites nowadays don't vet their users as much as they should. Safety should be the number one priority.

Week 7 - Learning Journal

 For this weeks learning journal: I've interviewed an industry expert at Qualcomm. Industry Expert Interview – Learning Journal Entry Khiem Vo   |   3rd Year, Computer Science   |   CSUMB Introduction For this assignment, I chose to interview Joel Gorin, a Software Engineer at Qualcomm. Qualcomm is one of the most influential semiconductor and technology companies in the world, known for pioneering mobile chipset design, wireless technology, and increasingly, on-device AI and machine learning solutions. As a third-year Computer Science student with a strong interest in AI and machine learning, I was drawn to Joel because his work sits at an intersection I find deeply compelling — low-level systems engineering that enables high-level intelligence. Understanding how AI is being implemented at the hardware and firmware level, not just in cloud-based software, felt like a perspective I could not get from a textbook. I reached out to Joel through LinkedIn, in...

Week 4 - Learning Journal

Week 4 Learning Journal Part One: Educational Goals After this week’s readings on goal setting, I realize that education isn’t just about passing classes - it’s about creating a clear mission for my learning . Using the guidance from MindTools and LiveCareer, I’m defining my educational goal not just as “finish the degree,” but: My educational goal is to graduate with a deep, usable understanding of core computer science fundamentals (data structures, algorithms, systems design) and to build the discipline of continuous learning so I can stay relevant beyond the classroom. This means setting milestones (e.g., mastering algorithms by next semester completing a cloud-certification by end of year) so I can track growth objectively. Part Two: Career Goals Using the career goal frameworks from the Salary.com article and the mission-statement ideas from LiveCareer, I can see where I want to be in the next 3–5 years: My career goal is to move into a senior technical role such as Cloud Arc...
