I spent a fulfilling and enjoyable month learning in an international academic environment. I met inspiring professors, enthusiastic mentors and aspiring students from all over the world. It was in Aachen that I made a friend from a different country for the first time.
The company visits were very helpful as they gave an insight to the up and coming automated technologies adapted by the leading manufacturers in Germany. It really was an experience of a lifetime which I wish to revisit again in the future.
The two weeks in Aachen were unforgettable! I met responsible teachers, assistants and classmates, who taught me how the product design is carried out in Germany. We learned to implement useful tools such as CAD and 3D printing, the strength of teamwork, and how to analyse the product. It was my first time going abroad, which gave me new perspective of my professional future.
