You are not putting me off because i have been thinking about it hence the reason i decided to post it.

I will be applying to a University in Australia, New Zealand or Canada. Also it has to be on scholarship which i read is quite competitive.

Thank you for all the information, i will be looking at all options closely. Thank you again.

Oh yeah it has to be on full scholarship if accepted, great else i might have to just continue working and focus on Cisco Certifications.

Working in academia seems like fun but later in life not at this age :). Thanks

Thanks so much for taking out your time to reply. I agree with you a 100% in all you have pointed out.

I had plan to either focus on Cisco Certifications (got a few certs already) and build up my career from there or go for a Phd in SDN or ML.

However i have decided to just learn ML (coursera) on weekends or whatever and focus on certifications while working.

What do you think?

Either build a startup around ML in Africa or get a job on completion of my studies. So wanted to hear opinions from people in the field or doing this already.

I completed my Msc in Data Communications and Computer Networks (worked on SDN for my thesis) in 2015 and i have been working ever since. Considering going back to school for Phd to continue my work on SDN but reading and seeing all the fuss about ML i am having a rethink abt the SDN and what the future might hold
