Why did you choose your Master’s programme?

Firstly, I aimed to enhance my multidisciplinary skills and knowledge while benefiting from the opportunity to study in different countries and to meet new people. The programme has so far provided the excellent basis for that. Secondly, I sought to explore how I could integrate the knowledge I gained during my Bachelor's studies in environmental and energy engineering with the mining sector. 

What is studying in Joint Master’s programme like in practice?

You get the best opportunities to meet professionals and peers from various places and backgrounds, get to travel a lot, and most importantly studying never gets boring with all the various courses provided from the partnering universities!

What is the best course you have taken?

To be honest, I enjoyed all of the courses that were held during the first semester in Aalto, however, if I really had to choose one it would be the Field Experience Course, where we got to visit all the big mines in northern Finland and Sweden.

What is the best thing about student life?

The freedom of choice, opportunity, and meeting new people. Working hard while also having loads of fun!

What does the future of the industry of your field look like?

One of the few aspects that I got to realize during the first semester in Aalto is that this particular industry will need more professionals like us in the future to provide the basis for attaining a more sustainable raw material cycle. Simply, recycling won't be enough to support the consumption and growth of modern societies, thus, new innovations, cooperation, and skilled individuals are needed in the industry in the upcoming years.
