Motivation

Welcome to the PhD in ICT

3

The reasons can be categorized into two distinct groups.

The opportunity to acquire advance skills in a relatively short period is a key aspect. The PhD also offers the chance to accumulate experiences that will enhance my personal and professional background, effectively preparing me for future challenges.

The possibility to further develop the topics I explored in my master’s thesis is a compelling aspect. These covered topics will enable me to complete what I started, contributing to greater knowledge about BGP and IXPs.
