Full Credential Description
Sven Celin, a Master's student in Computer Science and Software Engineering & Management at Technische Universität Graz, faced the challenge of securing accommodation in a new city while pursuing his studies. Originally from Rijeka, Croatia, Sven had taken a gap year to save money but still needed financial support to afford a suitable living situation close to the university.
To address this issue, Sven obtained an EU-guaranteed loan from Privredna Banka Zagreb, backed by the European Investment Fund (EIF). This financial assistance enabled him to rent an apartment in a central location, significantly reducing his commuting time and allowing him to focus on his studies and personal projects. The loan not only facilitated his living arrangements but also provided him with a space to engage in his hobbies, such as robotics and creating automated systems.
As Sven approaches the completion of his thesis, which investigates gambling addiction in casinos through data analysis, he has already secured a job for February 2021, where he will be involved in data analysis for large storage facilities. He anticipates being able to repay the loan within 2-3 years, demonstrating the positive impact of the financial support on his educational and professional trajectory.
