<span style="color: #073763;">According to MUM Computer Science <b>Professor Emdad Khan</b>: </span><br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: left;">
<span style="color: #073763; font-size: small;">"Data Science, which dominates today's numerical data-driven world, is the key for the Next Generation Internet, which will be driven by text data, multi-media data, Intelligent Agents, and Machine Learning. In this environment, Natural Language Computing and Cognitive Computing capabilities will create many attractive applications."</span></blockquote>
<span style="color: #073763;">Data Science (DS) is BIG business and the Computer Science and Mathematics Departments at Maharishi University of Management are now offering a Data Science track for our students and graduates to prepare for careers as Data Scientists and Chief Data Officers (CDO) in the corporate world.</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
Most young women growing up in Yemen have few opportunities for higher education and professional jobs. But Sahar Abdullah's parents believe that higher education plays an integral role in personal development, so they strongly encouraged Sahar and her sister to continue education after high school.<br />
<br />
Because Sahar was one of the top secondary school students in Yemen, she received a scholarship to study for her bachelor's degree in Egypt. Her love for programming and problem solving led Sahar to choose computer science as her major. At Cairo University she successfully completed her bachelor's degree in Computer Science and master's degree in Information Systems, and completed a Cisco diploma at American University.<br />
<br />
After learning about our unique MS in Computer Science in a LinkedIn message from MUM, Sahar kept thinking that one master's degree was enough--but the idea for a second master's emphasizing OOP software development kept popping into her head. So she decided to research<b> Maharishi University of Management and our MS in Computer Science for Computer Professionals program</b>, and joined our Facebook group. When Sahar realized that many Arab students had happily and successfully enrolled in this program, she decided to apply, and was accepted for the October 2014 entry.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<b>Happy at MUM</b><br />
<br />
When she first arrived at Maharishi University of Management last year, Sahar's initial impression of the University was that everyone here was happy. She told her mother, "All the people here are smiling and saying hi!"<br />
<br />
After a year on campus, Sahar reflects on the special nature of the MUM/Fairfield, Iowa community: <b>"I really love this peaceful environment that I am in--an environment full of love, happiness and joy obtained from the incredible benefits of practicing the Transcendental Meditation technique. Just living in this community with international software professionals all doing TM together is an honor for me in itself."</b><br />
<br />
Even though she is far from her parents and sister, and misses them very much, Sahar's family is relieved to know she is in a very safe and completely supportive environment at MUM.<br />
<br />
<b>Harmony in Diversity</b><br />
<br />
"As a Muslim lady living in Fairfield, I feel that people around me are respecting me and others," says Sahar. "They treat me as one of them, despite the fact that I wear my scarf. I have never felt mistreated. Friends greet us on <i>Eid </i>(a Muslim holiday), and Eid prayers trips are arranged for us."<br />
<br />
<b>Top Academics</b><br />
<br />
Sahar has also been pleased with the academics in the Computer Professionals program: "The program's high standards create a powerful motivation. I look to this program like a tree: You plant the seed, water it, and take care of it. As the knowledge grows within, you gain fruits forever. Every aspect of the academic program was the best either in moments of challenge, or moments of success. The courses were very challenging, but now that I am finished, I am ready for my curricular practical training internship in the IT industry."<br />
<br />
<b>Advice for Other Female Software Developers</b><br />
<br />
<b>"Nowadays, the biggest challenge for a female is to be employed and feel useful for society and herself. I would like to tell all female software developers who feel they are creative, full of ideas, and dreams, but have not found the appropriate ways to express their talents--at MUM you will get the support and knowledge to realize the best in your skills and competencies."</b><br />

<br />
<b>A Bright Future</b><br />
<br />
In January, Sahar will begin her IT career as a Software Engineer at <i>Intel </i>in Oregon where she will be part of a product development engineer team. Her job will be transforming designs into competitive products, and testing development for microprocessors, system-on-chips and chip sets. We wish her great happiness and success, as we stay in touch with another special member of our world family.<br />

<span style="color: #073763;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #073763;">On Saturday, May 23rd, a record 391 Maharishi University of Management graduates where honored to experience an amazing graduation talk by <b>Dr. Yukio Hatoyama, the former Prime Minister of Japan.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: #073763;"> </span><span style="color: #073763;"> </span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #073763;">Dr. Hatoyama is a member of a
distinguished Japanese family, which has been compared with the Kennedy family
in the US. His family has a long history of government service. His
great-grandfather was the speaker of the House of Representatives in Japan’s
legislature in the late 19th century. His grandfather was Prime Minister of
Japan in the 1950's and helped secure membership in the United Nations for
Japan. His father was Japan’s foreign minister. His younger brother served as
Minister of Internal Affairs and Communications.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #073763;">His family also has a long
history in higher education. His great-grandfather, after stepping down from
government service, became President of Waseda University, and his great
grandmother co-founded Kyoritsu Women’s University. At the graduation, Dr. Hatoyama received an <o:p></o:p>honorary Doctor of Laws degree from MUM.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #073763;">Dr. Hatoyama holds an
undergraduate degree in engineering from the University of Tokyo and a PhD in
industrial engineering from Stanford. He was a professor of engineering at
Tokyo Institute of Technology and Senshu University.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #073763;">His political career began in
1986, when he was elected to the House of Representatives. He was elected Prime
Minister in 2009, and despite his relatively short time in office, he has a
long list of achievements, including greater spending on education and student
scholarships and free support services for people with disabilities. Under his
leadership, Japanese relations with China became more cordial.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<i>Business Intelligence and Data Mining</i> is a conversational and<br />
informative book in the exploding area of Business Analytics.<br />
Using this book, one can easily gain the intuition about<br />
the area, along with a solid tool set of major data mining<br />
techniques and platforms. This book can thus be gainfully<br />
used as a textbook for a college course. It is also short and<br />
accessible enough for a busy executive to become a quasi-expert<br />
in this area in a couple of hours. Every chapter begins<br />
with a case-let from the real world, and ends with a case<br />
study that runs across the chapters.<br />

The Computer Professionals MS program at Maharishi University of Management is our largest academic program. We have graduated more than 1,300 students since 1996, with more than 500 currently enrolled. The program attracts students from all over the world, and has given them paths to success at more than 1,000 US companies and organizations.<br />
<br />
The MSCS program is also our fastest growing program.. Enrollment has expanded from around 160 new students per year over the past few years, to over 300 this year, and we expect enrollment to continue growing over the next three years. We need to support this rapid expansion with more <a href="http://mscs.mum.edu/faculty-openings.html" target="_blank">top-level faculty</a>, additional courses, and classrooms and labs.<br />
<br />
The 12,000 square foot McLaughlin Building, inaugurated in 2002 created a beautiful home for the program. An additional new 18,000 square foot building, built next to the McLaughlin Building will accommodate this growth for the next five years.</div>

According to MUM MSCS student Stanley Kariuki,"MUM is one of the most amazing places to live and to study. The faculty are remarkable, and the students are really great. It’s like one big international family working to build your career."<br />
<br />
"Fairfield has a quiet, peaceful environment with great beauty, and the people here are warm and great. This community is awesome. I have made friends with people from different countries and am loving it here. I will miss this a lot when I leave," says Stanley.<br /><br />When Stanley left his native Kenya in June 2013 to come to MUM, it was his first time on an airplane. His goal is to get into the software development business, try out a few ideas, and hopefully help some of his Kenyan friends take their first airplane to the U.S. and MUM.
