Full Credential Description
Federico Bono, a student from Treviso, Italy, faced the challenge of balancing his studies in a double Master's degree program with the financial pressures of tuition fees and living expenses. He sought a program that would not only enhance his technical skills in data science but also provide insights into innovation and entrepreneurship, which are crucial for his aspirations to start a business in the software and digital solutions sector.
To address these challenges, the EIT Digital Masters School offered a tailored solution through a deferred tuition payment plan, which allowed Federico to focus on his studies without the immediate burden of tuition fees. He only needed to start repayment one year after completing the program, which significantly reduced his need to work excessive hours and enabled him to concentrate on his education. This financial flexibility was crucial for him, as it alleviated the stress of juggling work and study, allowing him to engage more deeply with his coursework.
As a result of this support, Federico was able to immerse himself in his studies, particularly in areas such as data mining, distributed systems, and business intelligence. He is now well-positioned to help small businesses with their digital transformation efforts, leveraging his skills to design and develop software solutions that enhance operational efficiency. Federico's experience illustrates the unique benefits of the EIT Digital program, which not only provided financial relief but also equipped him with the necessary skills and knowledge to pursue his entrepreneurial goals in the digital landscape.
