How is it to study at EIT Digital?

Here is what our students say about our community and programmes:

"I wanted more than just a tech degree. I was looking for a program that would challenge me to think beyond code — to explore design, innovation, and how digital products shape our lives. EIT Digital offered exactly that. Studying in two countries, surrounded by people from all over the world, gave me the friction and freedom I needed to grow."

Milan Tornier, studying Human Computer Interaction and Design (Polytechnic University of Madrid and University of Trento)

"This Master’s program gave me the chance to meet incredible people from all over the world. Being immersed in so many cultures taught me a lot about myself. I’ve grown so much, both personally and academically. The EIT Digital Master School is more than just a degree. It’s a life-changing experience—academically, professionally, and personally."

Mame Absa Diagne, studying Data Science (University of Rennes and Polytechnic University of Madrid)

"I chose EIT Digital because I felt it offered a unique opportunity to study at multiple top-tier universities while connecting with the broader European community and culture. The international experience and academic diversity truly stood out to me. Once I graduate, I'm most excited about starting my own startup and growing it into a successful business. The I&E courses sparked a real passion in me, and I’m eager to turn that inspiration into something impactful. "

Răzvan-Claudiu Tomuța, studying Cybersecurity (University Babes-Bolyai and EURECOM)

"I would say that choosing EIT is about opening doors, not closing them. It’s about choosing a path that goes beyond just technical skills. You also develop a solid understanding of the business world, as well as strong communication, teamwork, and international projection skills. Our profiles may not be the most conventional, but that’s exactly what makes them valuable. It allows us to stand out in a competitive field like cybersecurity."

Mélanie Romano, studying Cybersecurity (University of Rennes and University of Turku)

"I’m really excited to take what I’ve learned with the EIT Digital Master School and start building something meaningful. The program gave me a strong foundation in autonomous systems and a broader perspective on tech and innovation. Right now, I’m planning to start a PhD to deepen my knowledge even further. Long term, I’d love to use that experience to launch my own company and work on real-world problems that matter."

Lorenzo Fici, studying Autonomous Systems and Intelligent Robots (University Côte d’Azur and KTH)

"I chose the EIT Digital Master School because it offered a unique combination of deep technical education and innovation-driven learning. The integration of entrepreneurship courses with advanced technical studies, along with access to a strong innovation ecosystem, made it the perfect fit for my goals of working at the intersection of technology and impact. After I graduate, I look forward to working in cross-functional, multicultural teams and possibly launching or joining a startup that values innovation and sustainability."
