Areas of Interest:
I am particularly keen on acquiring skills in the following areas for the benefit of my small business:
- Programming for Business Analytics, particularly Python or R
- Conversational Artificial Intelligence (AI)
- Natural Language Processing (NLP)
- Ethical and Legal Considerations in AI
If I missed any areas

Optional Area of Interest:
- Machine Learning

End goals
Natural Language Processing skills to parse and interpret human language, making it useful in automating documentation, extracting relevant medical information from unstructured data, and even in chatbot interfaces for patient engagement.

Machine Learning skills to assist in interpreting complex data such as medical imaging or lab results. By learning from existing datasets, these algorithms can identify abnormalities or patterns that might indicate specific medical conditions.

you obviously should have gotten a degree in computer science or mathematics

Quote:Requirements

   First degree (at least Bachelor with at least 6 semesters) from a recognised German or comparable other foreign university in Computer Science, Engineering or similar
   At least 1 year relevant professional experience in full-time
   Basic knowledge of Computer Science
   Basic programming skills
   Basic university level in mathematics, including linear algebra, probability theory and statistics

you don't qualify for the University of Lübeck, Germany : Online Master’s degree in Artificial Intelligence

if you don't know linear algebra then AI isn't for you


You raise a fair point. I do not have an extensive background in math or computer science. As an undergrad, I did not take courses like linear algebra or probability theory. My first doctoral dissertation was a mixed study (quantitative and qualitative) that focused in bayesian statistics models and utilized statistical software like R, Python, SPSS, JASP and NVivo. I had no basic math course. 

Thank you for the feedback - it's helped me realize I should be more cautious about overestimating my skills and knowledge.
