V. Petrone - From Salerno to Lugano: an enlightening learningexperience

Vincenzo Petrone

How did the interest in a mobility period arise?
​​
The Ph.D. program in Information Engineering includes a mandatory period of 6–18 months. I chose IDSIA because of their interest in merging robotics, control and artificial intelligence, particularly in applying the reinforcement learning approach to accomplish complex tasks. I also like to grow, both in academical and personal sense, continuously putting myself into new challenges ad experiencing different contexts and cultures.
How do you rate this experience now?
​​
In general, I am glad to have spent the mobility period abroad: it allowed me to gain new knowledge and skills compared to what I had previously learned.
In particular, studying and learning in SUPSI was an exciting experience: I am happy to have met people with different cultural and academic backgrounds, providing me a broader and more complete view on the world around me. Also, I had the opportunity to test the expertise I have gained during my studies in my home institution, which I have proudly represented.
Would you recommend this experience to others?
​​
I definitely recommend it, especially to those who are seeking independence, desire to enlarge their knowledge and want to meet people from all corners of the world. Moving abroad might seem scary at the beginning, but being open-minded and ready to approach everything positively will certainly help.
