it will definitely be fun, both being a student + working on your own project.
From my experience, for some reason PhD advisors tend to work well/really like mature students. No hard data on this, just an empirical observation across 3-4 labs I've worked in before I left academia.
With regards to career prospects (outside academia ofc), you definitely gain respect but anything more than that largely depends on your area of research. Which one is it, if I may ask?
- wiz21c 9y agoI'm looking at anything involving computational geometry; and if I have spare time, ethics :-)
- photoJ 9y agoFind the right advisor and anything is possible. Remember tho, that the department and the research community to which you will belong will also have a considerable say in if you are allowed to progress.
- bpicolo 9y agoHave you considered bootstrapping the field of computation ethics ;)
- wiz21c 9y agoI guess it already exists a bit (Asimov's laws or robotics ?) but I'm afraid no one is interested.
