Your studies offer you a variety of opportunities for practical experience. For example, in many of your courses you will apply the theory you have learned directly by engaging in a realistic project so as to be able to pursue it in greater depth. The fifth semester is a practical semester: here you go out to a company and apply everything you have learned so far in a real-life setting.
