"I chose Biomedical Engineering because I felt it combined what interested me most: medicine and technology. From day one, I discovered that the university offered multiple possible paths, and that freedom to explore was key to my education."

In each of those areas, I found professionals willing to support me, guide me, and enhance my interests and technical skills, always encouraging me to look beyond the obvious. I felt genuine, human support that gave meaning to every project and every challenge. The connection with the hospital strengthened each project, allowing for close collaboration between engineers and doctors. This interdisciplinary approach was an essential and profoundly enriching aspect of my training.
