Why a Masters
I always had this in mind, to finish my masters.
In my bachelor's I wanted robotics and took electronics first. This is the specialisation I wanted: robotics, and especially drones.
I was a systems engineer at the company, so I looked for a course at a systems engineer level.
Why Odense
I got to know about SDU through a colleague in the office. Someone he knew was studying here, and said it is very good and has a course with drones and robotics together.
Then I did a lot of research of my own.
Odense is known for robotics, for the entire Europe. SDU and Odense is a great opportunity for me to enter a more professional field within aerial robotics.
What pulled me here
I had seen so many videos from Europe. One university was doing research on the control of drones 10 or 12 years back.
They used camera systems to know where the drone is. They showed how stable the drones are and how they can move in athletic ways. A drone with one propeller, spinning like a UFO and still flying very stable. A drone that still flies after you take away one motor.
I want the opportunity to work with professors like that, who are interested in building something different that could be of use somewhere.
The visa came late
I quit my job thinking I would leave early for Denmark, to explore the place and get used to it. I didn't want to just dive into college and not be able to understand anything. But that's what happened to me.
My visa came very late. I packed everything within 3 days, and I came like I'm a tourist here. I bought whatever was necessary, one thing after the other.
I joined 11 days after classes had started.
A few people who were starting like me had already arrived, because their visas came early. They were of very great help, so I was able to adapt to the country much faster. I caught up with all the classes.
How they teach here
Here you do the project, and then you defend it out loud. Or you explain the concepts that have been taught in your own words. They basically try to see whether you understand or not.
First semester: embedded systems on programmable chips (FPGA), control of autonomous systems, physically interactive robots, an introduction to drones, and machine learning.
What I'm looking for
I'm looking for a student job, thesis project or collaboration with a robotics or drone team in Denmark.
At the SDU UAS Center (UAS means unmanned aircraft systems) I want to build my own idea, test it, and end with a working product, a thesis and a paper.
