PhD for ruby\ios developer?

Question

IT education

In the spring of last year I defended my diploma, now I am an information security specialist.
At my native department, they told me that since I quit, I fall to the very bottom in the list of people recommended for admission to graduate school, and since there are many such people, I can’t count.
Accordingly, I still want to go to graduate school, but I thought about it - in addition to my native department, there are many other universities (I am in St. Petersburg - www.aspirantura.spb.ru/other/asp_piter.html )
and there are also foreign ones. Given that you want to do what you love (ruby\iPhone),
what are some good options for graduate school?

Answer 1

I may not understand something, but how are graduate school and a smartphone related to a programming language?
In graduate school, they are engaged in scientific development, and not development for the iPhone. Those. how do you imagine that? graduate school for iPhone developers, chtoli?

Answer 2

Slightly off topic question - why do you need it? Go to work and earn money.

Answer 3

As a person who recently graduated from graduate school (4 years, because he is a part-time student. Although in practice there was no difference between us) and defended his dissertation, I’ll say that it would be better if I worked :) Which is what I advise you. It’s never too late to get a degree itself (and it’s useful, maybe I haven’t felt it yet), but having articles and a “brick” you can do without graduate school.

Answer 4

I want to study, without it it's hard for me. Reading articles and self-study is still not something I lack.

Answer 5

I abandoned this idea and went into engineering. Get over yourself and you will be happy.
The problems are not even in the expediency of postgraduate studies (and I think that now it is pointless), but banally in the dissertation of the topic and the search for a scientific one)) My advice is to go and earn precious practical experience.
