AI-Driven Approach to Identifying the Ideal Time-Frame to Contact Professors for Funded Positions and Research Collaborations ( Data Thread)

I know this topic might sound silly at first, but if you're applying abroad and looking for scholarships, it’s not obscure at all. For many students, getting a reply from the professors they aspire to work with is a dream come true!

I believe that problems lead to solutions, and I genuinely want to dive deep into this topic and extract meaningful insights.

Of course, there are some challenges to consider:

  • The Big Dataset! I believe students who are reaching out to professors can help contribute to this research. Here’s a Google Sheet: https://shorturl.at/5kQEM where you can share your data—it’s not a Google Form because people tend to skip those! It’ll take less than a minute to share your info with us.
  • Time Zone Considerations: The second column in our dataset is the country, but if we can make equivalent assumptions based on daytime hours, this shouldn’t be an issue. What’s your take on this?
  • Collecting Data from Professors: While this isn’t a groundbreaking problem to solve, it matters a lot to students. If any professor is willing to share their schedule or thoughts on this topic, we would wholeheartedly welcome their input. Sheet 2 if for respected Professors - https://shorturl.at/5kQEM
  • Thank you so much for reading this far! Cheers!! 🚀
