The coursework for the first year at the University of Tartu strengthened my knowledge of analytical chemistry through a combination of lectures and hands-on laboratory works. In the second year at \u00c5bo Akademi University (\u00c5AU), I was provided with a good understanding of electrochemical sensors and electrochemistry in general. Despite starting with a limited knowledge of electrochemistry, the supportive and knowledgeable teachers at \u00c5AU made my learning process smooth and enriching.

The mix of advanced courses, hands-on lab work, and specialised training during my first year at the University of Tartu in Estonia and my second year at Universit\u00e9 Claude Bernard Lyon 1 in France really boosted my understanding of analytical chemistry and inspired me to pursue my career further in this field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-bc9c72cbdd54af99428698b3d13aae97\" style=\"color:#f78419\">Beyond the classes, I also enjoyed the inspiring talks and seminars from top researchers in academia and industry. The winter schools, like joint events with the other two second-year universities (within the consortium), were also great chances to meet people, share ideas, and get different perspectives. Under this EACH umbrella, getting to know about multiple international cultures is also one of my major takeaways, beyond learning and doing science.
