Alumni Highlights
EMECS was fun and challenging. Most of my classes involved hands-on projects. We got full support from our professors in order to get the most out of this programme. Apart from certain mandatory classes, the programme was flexible enough to lead my studies to the direction I wanted. I had the chance to study with the most qualified students from all over the world and had exposure to the academic studies and to the industry in countries that are world-leading in technology.

I chose to apply for the EMECS program both to get quality education in my chosen field of embedded systems and to gain exposure to an international environment and EMECS did not let me down in either regard. The technical knowledge, social experiences and intercultural insight I gained during my stay in Southampton and Kaiserslautern have already proven invaluable a number of times. Having completed the EMECS program, I believe I am now well prepared for any future challenges I may encounter in my field of work.

Applying for the EMECS program was one of the best decisions in my life! After finishing my bachelor's degree I wanted to specialize in Embedded Systems. Through the EMECS program I had the opportunity to study two years abroad, at two leading European universities. This allowed me to greatly extend my knowledge about Embedded Systems and at the same time to become friends with students from all around the world. This program opened up many possibilities for my future career and let me get to know lots of great people.
