Testimonials
Read moreFor me, NU School of Engineering was a place where I could make an impact and turn my ideas into tangible solutions. Some of the most precious memories for me are the team assignments. We had a chance to code a robot to exit a maze, develop a project plan for an off-shore oil platform or build an exoskeleton to help people of determination. With a great support of our professors, I was also able to participate in the summer research program in Saudi Arabia, which gave me a better understanding of my field and shaped my future career path.
I graduated from NU in 2016 with BEng in Mechanical Engineering.
Right after that I moved to Russia to join Continental AG, major tire manufacturer. I had worked in Kaluga, a city in Russia where Continental has a plant, for 9 months and after that I moved to headquarters of Continental in Hannover, Germany. I worked there for another 9 months. While working at Conti I realized that I would prefer to do research and decided to pursue PhD.
NU equipped with knowledge, skills and friends. I learned how to learn here and this is the most important skill. The friends I made at NU are the best friends I could hope for.
The School of Engineering at NU gave me fundamental knowledge in core disciplines. As a part of my current studies in PhD program I had to take advanced core classes and my performance was quite high. This implies that I had sufficient background from NU, indeed it helped me a lot, I never had to worry about my grad classes.
