Student in Computer Science

During my time at Polytech Nice Sophia, I explored a broad spectrum of computer science topics. From low-level to high-level programming languages, as well as courses in design, project management, psychology, and soft skills, I felt equipped to enter the tech industry. After a challenging first year due to limited technical skills, I retook the year with renewed determination, inspired by a passion for Android development. The satisfaction of building user interfaces led me to specialize in Human-Machine Interaction in my final year.
