My name is Sana Intakhab<\/strong>\u00a0and I am a student of the\u00a0Masters in Data Science<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/span> at Bologna Business School<\/strong>. I came from Karachi, Pakistan, ‘a small piece of Heaven in the world<\/em>‘, enriched with the spices and flavors of our diversified culture, our food and hospitality.<\/p>\n


\nPreviously, I\u00a0earned a degree in Polymer & Petrochemical Engineering<\/strong> as my major, and a diversified experience of 4.5 years in the fields of R&D and Quality and Operations. I decided to pursue my master\u2019s degree in Data Science at BBS in order to enhance my expertise in this domain, as today whatever industry you are working in, the Big Data are the factor that challenge you the most<\/strong> and play a paramount role in all fields.\u00a0I found the Master at BBS\u00a0to be a perfect blend of strategical and entrepreneurial didactical approaches, the enhancing taste of the Italian food and culture\u00a0and the\u00a0international environment<\/strong> offered by the city of Bologna.<\/p>\n

Before making any decision, I usually\u00a0review all the pros and cons for a long time, but once decided, I launch myself into every new adventure with passion and determination.\u00a0<\/span>I can still remember\u00a0all the emotions of that first day at BBS, when I\u00a0entered\u00a0Villa Guastavillani feeling every step prominent to a great change in life. And I can still feel this transformation in process<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Here, I have found a warm welcome from professors and colleagues and\u00a0a continuous support form the coordinators of the program. The\u00a0classrooms in which our lessons were held,\u00a0with their decorated ceilings and frescoes,\u00a0were\u00a0stage to demanding lectures that\u00a0filled our days\u00a0with a variety of new knowledge to gain<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Everything coming in this new horizon\u00a0has exceeded my expectations. All the hard work put inside this Master finally paid off: for my Internship, I had the chance\u00a0to work at SOPAT GmbH<\/a>, where I still work today, so I moved to Berlin. SOPAT develops and sells a Photo-optical and image-based analysis measurement technology<\/strong> that quantitatively characterizes particulate multi-phase systems. In combination with the hardware, the innovative SOPAT software provides real time analysis of particle size distribution and characteristics. Here, I am implementing practically what I have learned during the year at BBS.\u00a0The great strategical knowledge, together with the increase of my\u00a0time management skills and my performance capacity under pressure, make the Master in Data Science the best program to address in a comprehensive way all the spectrum of themes connected to Data Analysis<\/strong>. The\u00a0Master has definitely enriched my career and spending time in the city of Bologna has given me such a diversified experience, that is just unforgettable.<\/p>\n

I enjoyed every single day at BBS. I marked 2018 as one of the most adventurous, thrilling and beautiful years of my life. I heartily thanked everyone for the positive attitude, support and warm gesture. My\u00a0study in BBS marks the beginning of a journey that can take me anywhere,\u00a0towards the future.<\/p>\n

Looking forward to the Graduation 2019, I truly felt honored\u00a0to be part of BBS and the University of Bologna.<\/p>\n

\u201cDo not let your difficulties fill you with anxiety; after all it is only in the darkest nights that stars shine more brightly.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
