EIT student experience
Table of contents
1. Introduction
I have always liked to keep track of everything I did, such as trips, experiences, and everyday life. I almost wrote every kind of thing happened to me in the last years
in order to remember them better and to fix some important moments.
I have decided to do the same thing for my university life as well because I think it might be useful to someone who chooses the same path as me.
2. The EIT Digital Master School, narrated by a student 👨🏻🎓
I graduated in Computer Science at Politecnico di Milano in July 2022, after almost three really hard and intense years, full of satisfaction, but also crisis.
At the beginning of the last year of the Bachelor, I did not really know what to do after the graduation: I was sure to continue
studying IT-related topics and my biggest desire was to study abroad. I was born and raised in Milan and I felt the need to change
air (also because of smog 😷) and city.
All of my friends wanted to continue to study Computer Science (Master School) at Politecnico di Milano.
It seemed to me the only option, until a friend of mine told me about EIT Digital and the possibility of attending a Double Degree Program.
I have never heard about it, so I started looking for any kind of information on their website, and I found it immediately interesting.
What is EIT?
Two Years, Two Countries, Two Degrees
The EIT Digital Master School offers a two-year programme that lets you study at two world-class universities located in two different European countries. What’s more, you get to build a tailor-made curriculum based on your unique skills and interests. We offer double degrees, each of which combines technical competences with practical skills in innovation and entrepreneurship.
They have different programmes: Data Science, CyberSecurity, Fintech, Autonomous System,
Cloud and Network Infrastructures, Embedded Systems and Human Computer Interaction and Design (HCID). (more info here)
I have always been fascinated by data and stats, so I have chosen to apply for Data Science.
