Victoria Urinayo, PhD candidate, Université de Montreal Canada: “Studying at ETH Zurich was one of the best experiences I've ever had because I earned a degree from one of the prestigious universities in the world. It was a great chance to learn new technical skills on advanced level from professors who are experts in their fields and also share ideas with students from different backgrounds. All those skills and experience, I believe they will help me in the future as a researcher and in my career afterwards. Briefly, being part of MAS program, it was a great exposure as I met new people, learned new skills and enjoyed traditions from other countries which gave me a chance to expand my horizon and try new things. IT WAS AN AMAZING EXPERIENCE." 

Jaime Huang, Technical Lead for Citywide Healthy Waters Plan, City of Vancouver Canada: “The MAS in SWR program has been an incredible milestone in my life. Within a compressed timeframe; I was able to enhance my technical knowledge, learn new skills, and experience doing research at a top institution in one of the most beautiful places in the world. Beyond the classroom, my horizons were broadened by the lived experience and ambition of the fantastic people I met during my studies. I find myself now much better equipped to tackle important environmental problems with a collaborative and scientific-based approach." 

Keerthana Suresh, PhD candidate, International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) Vienna: "A highly technical curriculum and excellent academic environment during my MAS studies at ETH was one of my best learning experiences. Besides, some modules provide an interdisciplinary perspective that challenge conventional understanding and allow you to push boundaries on critically thinking about water security and climate change. Apart from academia, my life experiences in Switzerland and memories together with my colleagues in an international environment was very enriching. The course is very relevant and applicable to both research and industry. It was certainly a stepping stone that increased my chances to continue research in the water sector and secure a PhD position supported with a prestigious EU scholarship." 

Maria Aparicio, Co-founder Open Hydro, London U.K.: "I was honored to delve into sustainability and water resources at one of the world's top universities. The  enriching experience was complete with colleagues from all over the world.”
