Dec. 2018 grad seeks alumni insights in data science, start-ups

I will be graduating in December 2018 with a double major in computer science and economics, and pursuing a career in data science. I am actively looking for a summer internship in data analytics, engineering and quantitative research in industries including technology and consulting. I have multifaceted skills in programming, statistics, and business. During my past internship and project experiences, I have dealt with large volumes of data and conducted research using various tools including Stata, Python, and SQL.

I’m trying to decide between finding a full-time job or going to graduate school after graduation. I would appreciate insights from alumni working in the field on what they chose to do, and any advice for finding a summer internship. What’s more, I am passionate about start-ups so I would appreciate any viewpoints from alumni working with start-ups. Thank you so much!
