Yes, international applicants need to go through an interview to be able to get into Purdue MEM. It is one of the most important steps of the Purdue University admission process. So, what all is asked in this interview, it is given below - 

• You will be asked about your previous work experience and what you want to achieve in terms of career

• The applicants should not worry because the interview is very relaxed and conversational. 

Hi.

Yes — under PTE Academic, you are allowed to bring certain “comfort aids” into the exam room.

• Acceptable comfort aids include things like tissues; cough drops (unwrapped); a pillow (for neck/back or injured limbs); a sweater, sweatshirt, or blazer; eyeglasses or hearing aids; neck-braces or collars (if medically needed); and insulin pumps (if worn).

• You must provide your own comfort aids.

• On the test-day, any comfort aids you bring will need to be shown to and inspected by the Test Administrator before you enter the test room.

Hi.

• SEAS offers a Master's (S.M.) in Data Science, jointly run by its Computer Science and Statistics faculties. 

• For doctoral students enrolled in other fields, SEAS (via the Harvard Kenneth C. Griffin Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, or GSAS) allows a Secondary Field in Data Science — essentially a “minor/concentration” alongside your main PhD subject.

Hi.

• For a full-time graduate degree via Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) in Data Science (or Computational Science & Engineering), admissions are offered for the Fall term only.

• According to the GSAS admission guidelines: “All degree candidates are admitted for full-time study beginning in the fall term.” 

• So spring or summer start is not an option for entering a standard degree programme under Harvard GSAS / SEAS Data Science.
