Italian student moves toward a goal of benefiting the lives of others.

Finding and following that passion

Carmen, a university student from Italy, dreams of a world where people in need of medical support can access facilities without going through complex processes. In high school, Carmen visited rural Thailand as a volunteer to teach, and noticed that many people with amputation had to struggle from time to time. This amplified her interest in robotics, especially its application in the medical field, like building prosthetics and artificial implantable organs.

Soaking up knowledge and broadening perspective

With the goal to build medical devices for those living without them, Carmen signed up for Samsung Innovation Campus. While she studies electronic engineering at the university, Samsung Innovation Campus offered the opportunity to nurture technical skills in computer science like machine learning, AI, and IoT, as well as soft skills. Carmen especially enjoyed lectures on IoT devices and their uses in the medical field, as her biggest interest lay in the application of engineering in biology and anatomy.

The ongoing journey to a better future

Through Samsung Innovation Campus, Carmen realized that soft power like resilience and emotional intelligence are what differentiates an extraordinary engineer from others. “Samsung Innovation Campus has empowered the world’s youth, including myself, with technology and expanded our path to create a world we wish to be a part of and live in,” says Carmen. “Now with my potential unlocked, I will push forward to reach my dream where my skills and knowledge can be used to make an impact.”
